             abstract = "Precipitation is a key climatic parameter for many anthropogenic 
                         activities, especially agriculture. Yet, its homogeneous and 
                         continuous monitoring remains challenging. That is particularly 
                         true for the Amazon region, which is sparsely inhabited and has a 
                         low density of ground-based rain gauge network. Satellite-derived 
                         estimates of precipitation are thus essential to fill up the gap 
                         of rainfall measurements in the region. The PERSIANN-CDR is a 
                         relatively new product (released in 2013), available for the 
                         period 1983-delayed present, which provides a renewed opportunity 
                         to analyse and estimate precipitation in the Amazon region, based 
                         on a long-term record. In this work, we use three decades 
                         (1983-2013) of PERSIANN-CDR daily rainfall data to characterize 
                         precipitation patterns in the southern region of the Amazon basin 
                         - which has been heavily deforested and transformed in the past 
                         decades -, and to assess trends. Our analyses confirm the 
                         potential of PERSIANN-CDR estimates to monitor rainfall in the 
                         Amazon. We also computed metrics of the rain season (onset, demise 
                         and duration) and highlighted significant trends toward a 
                         reduction of the rainy season in the Southern Amazon, mainly 
                         related to earlier demise dates. This work thus contributes to 
                         monitor possible signs of climate change in the region, and to the 
                         assessment of uncertainties in rainfall trends.",
