                         Santare´m, Brazil. Carbon was lost in the wet season and gained in 
                         the dry season, which was opposite to the seasonal cycles of both 
                         tree growth and model predictions. The 3-year average carbon loss 
                         was 1.3 (confidence interval: 0.0 to 2.0) megagrams of carbon per 
                         hectare per year. Biometric observations confirmed the net loss 
                         but imply that it is a transient effect of recent disturbance 
                         superimposed on long-term balance. Given that episodic 
                         disturbances are characteristic of oldgrowth forests, it is likely 
                         that carbon sequestration is lower than has been inferred from 
                         recent eddy covariance studies at undisturbed sites.",
