                         paper, we investigate the climatic interaction between these 
                         regions from 1999 until 2012 using modern tools of complex system 
                         science. We identify the time scale of the coupling quantitatively 
                         and unveil the non-stationary influence of the oceans temperature. 
                         The findings show consistently the distinctions between the 
                         coupling in the recent major extreme events in Amazonia, such as 
                         the two droughts that happened in 2005 and 2010 and the three 
                         floods during 1999, 2009 and 2012. Interestingly, the results also

                         on the underlying dynamics of the climate network system and 
                         consequently can improve predictions of extreme rainfall events.",
