abstract = "The Amazon is the largest continuous tropical forest in the world
and plays a key role in the global carbon cycle. Human-induced
disturbances and climate change have impacted the Amazon carbon
balance. Here we conduct a comprehensive synthesis of existing
state-of-the-art estimates of the contemporary land carbon fluxes
in the Amazon using a set of bottom-up methods (i.e., dynamic
vegetation models and bookkeeping models) and a top-down inversion
(atmospheric inversion model) over the Brazilian Amazon and the
whole Biogeographical Amazon domain. Over the whole
biogeographical Amazon region bottom-up methodologies suggest a
small average carbon sink over 2010-2020, in contrast to a small
carbon source simulated by top-down inversion (2010-2018).
However, these estimates are not significantly different from one
another when accounting for their large individual uncertainties,
highlighting remaining knowledge gaps, and the urgent need to
reduce such uncertainties. Nevertheless, both methodologies agreed
that the Brazilian Amazon has been a net carbon source during
recent climate extremes and that the south-eastern Amazon was a
net land carbon source over the whole study period (2010-2020).
Overall, our results point to increasing human-induced
disturbances (deforestation and forest degradation by wildfires)
and reduction in the old-growth forest sink during drought.",
