The reconstruction is correlated with the same atmospheric variables that influence the instrumental measurements of wet season rainfall. Anticyclonic circulation over midlatitude South America promotes equatorward surges of cold and relatively dry extratropical air that converge with warm moist air to form deep convection and heavy rainfall over this sector of the southern Amazon Basin. Interesting droughts and pluvials are reconstructed during the preinstrumental nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, but the tree ring reconstruction suggests that the strong multidecadal variability in instrumental and reconstructed wet season rainfall after 1950 may have been unmatched since 1799.","pubRank":"1"}],"site":[{"NOAASiteId":"57377","siteName":"Southern Amazon Basin","siteCode":null,"mappable":"N","locationName":"Continent>South America>Bolivia","geo":{"geoType":"Feature","geometry":{"type":"POLYGON","coordinates":["-17.25","-13.75","-63.25","-61.25"]},"properties":{"southernmostLatitude":"-17.25","northernmostLatitude":"-13.75","westernmostLongitude":"-63.25","easternmostLongitude":"-61.25","minElevationMeters":null,"maxElevationMeters":null}},"paleoData":[{"dataTableName":"Amazon2017precip","NOAADataTableId":"33569","earliestYear":1799,"mostRecentYear":2012,"timeUnit":"CE","earliestYearBP":151,"mostRecentYearBP":-62,"earliestYearCE":1799,"mostRecentYearCE":2012,"coreLengthMeters":null,"dataTableNotes":null,"species":[],"dataFile":[{"fileUrl":"https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/pub/data/paleo/treering/reconstructions/southamerica/amazon2017precip.txt","urlDescription":"NOAA Template File","linkText":"Southern Amazon Basin Precipitation Reconstruction","variables":[{"cvDataType":"CLIMATE RECONSTRUCTIONS|TREE RING","cvWhat":"age variable>age","cvMaterial":null,"cvError":null,"cvUnit":"time unit>age unit>year Common Era","cvSeasonality":null,"cvDetail":null,"cvMethod":null,"cvAdditionalInfo":null,"cvFormat":"Numeric","cvShortName":null},{"cvDataType":"CLIMATE RECONSTRUCTIONS|TREE RING","cvWhat":"earth system variable>hydroclimatic variable>hydroclimate rate>precipitation","cvMaterial":null,"cvError":null,"cvUnit":"length unit>millimeter","cvSeasonality":"6-month period>Oct-Mar","cvDetail":null,"cvMethod":null,"cvAdditionalInfo":null,"cvFormat":"Numeric","cvShortName":null},{"cvDataType":"INSTRUMENTAL","cvWhat":"earth system variable>hydroclimatic variable>hydroclimate rate>precipitation","cvMaterial":null,"cvError":null,"cvUnit":"length unit>millimeter","cvSeasonality":"6-month period>Oct-Mar","cvDetail":null,"cvMethod":null,"cvAdditionalInfo":"CRU Southern Amazon","cvFormat":"Numeric","cvShortName":null},{"cvDataType":"INSTRUMENTAL","cvWhat":"earth system variable>hydroclimatic variable>hydroclimate rate>precipitation","cvMaterial":null,"cvError":null,"cvUnit":"length unit>millimeter","cvSeasonality":"monthly","cvDetail":null,"cvMethod":null,"cvAdditionalInfo":"CRU Southern Amazon","cvFormat":"Numeric","cvShortName":null}],"NOAAKeywords":["earth science>paleoclimate>reconstructions>precipitation"]}]}]}],"reference":{"pastThesaurusSkos":"https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/paleo-search/skos/past-thesaurus.rdf","pastThesaurusExplorer":"https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/paleo-search/cvterms","gcmdKeywordThesaurus":"https://earthdata.nasa.gov/earth-observation-data/find-data/idn/gcmd-keywords"},"dataLicenseDescription":null,"dataLicenseUrl":null}
