Aerial view of the round structures of the AmazonFACE experiment built in a National Institute of Amazonian Research (INPA) research area, located 80 km north of Manaus. AmazonFACE is one of the largest scientific experiments ever conducted in the Amazon. It simulates, in a tropical forest area, the impact of the increase in atmospheric CO2 predicted for the coming decades. Using FACE (Free Air CO2 Enrichment) technology, the project seeks to understand how climate change will affect the forest, its biodiversity, and the beneficial functions it currently carries out.
