                         turbulence above a densely forested area in the Amazon region is 
                         investigated. To this end, we use high-resolution temperature data 
                         obtained during a micrometeorological measurement campaign in the 
                         Brazilian Amazonia. Estimates of the correlation dimension 
                         (D2Z3.50G0.05) and of the largest Lyapunov exponent 
                         (l1Z0.050G0.002) suggest the existence of chaos in the atmospheric 
                         boundary layer. Our findings indicate that this low-dimensional 
                         chaotic dynamics is associated with the presence of the coherent 
                         structures within the boundary layer right above the canopy top
