Assessing the relative importance of dry-season incoming solar radiation and water storage dynamics during the 2005, 2010 and 2015 southern Amazon droughts: not all droughts are created equal

Assessing the relative importance of dry-season incoming solar radiation and water storage dynamics during the 2005, 2010 and 2015 southern Amazon droughts: not all droughts are created equal

Three severe droughts impacted the Amazon in 2005, 2010, and 2015, leading to widespread above-average land surface temperature (LST) (i.e. positive thermal anomalies) over the southern Amazon in the dry season (Aug–Sep) of these years. Below-average dry-season incoming solar radiation (SW↓) and ter...
