             abstract = "Atmospheric carbon dioxide records indicate that the land surface 
                         has acted as a strong global carbon sink over recent decades1, 2, 
                         with a substantial fraction of this sink probably located in the 
                         tropics3, particularly in the Amazon4. Nevertheless, it is unclear 
                         how the terrestrial carbon sink will evolve as climate and 
                         atmospheric composition continue to change. Here we analyse the 
                         historical evolution of the biomass dynamics of the Amazon 
                         rainforest over three decades using a distributed network of 321 
                         plots. While this analysis confirms that Amazon forests have acted 
                         as a long-term net biomass sink, we find a long-term decreasing 
                         trend of carbon accumulation. Rates of net increase in 
                         above-ground biomass declined by one-third during the past decade 
                         compared to the 1990s. This is a consequence of growth rate 
                         increases levelling off recently, while biomass mortality 
                         persistently increased throughout, leading to a shortening of 
                         carbon residence times. Potential drivers for the mortality 
                         increase include greater climate variability, and feedbacks of 
                         faster growth on mortality, resulting in shortened tree 
                         longevity5. The observed decline of the Amazon sink diverges 
                         markedly from the recent increase in terrestrial carbon uptake at 
                         the global scale1, 2, and is contrary to expectations based on 
                         models6.",
