CAMREX
Definition
- The objective of our CAMREX (Carbon in the Amazon River Experiment) project for two decades has been to determine the sequence of processes that controls the distributions and transformations of water and bioactive elements (C, N, P, and O) in the Amazon River system. The basic questions we are addressing are: How are biogeochemical signatures of the river system imparted by aggregated land surfaces, and at what rates and scales? How are the signatures of land-derived and in-situ processes modified during transit through the river system? What role does the evasion (outgassing) of CO2 from the river system to the atmosphere play in the carbon cycle of moist tropical forests?
