A study, 36 in the latest edition of
2、Ecology and Evolution, reveals the 37 age of some Amazonian tree species - more than 8 million years - and 38 shows that they have survived previous periods as warm as many of the global warming imagined periods 39 for the year 2100. The authors write that, having survived warm periods in the past,
3、the trees will 40 survive future warming, provided there are no other major environmental changes. 41 extreme droughts and forest fires will impact Amazonia as temperatures 42 , the trees will stand the direct impact of higher temperatures. The authors 43 that as well as reducing greenhouse gas emis

The study disagrees with other recent researches which predicted tree species extinctions 45 relatively small increases in global average air temperatures
5、. Study co-author Dr Simon Lewis (UCL Geography) said the 46 were good news for Amazon tree species, but warned that drought and over-exploitation of the forest remained major 47 to the Amazons future. Dr Lewis said: “The past cannot be compared directly with the future. while tree species seem like

Similarly, todays climate change is extremely fast, making comparisons with slower changes in the past 51 .” “With a clearer 52 of the relative risks to the Amazon forest, we 53 that direct human impacts - such as forest clearances for agriculture or mining - should remain a key

We also need more aggressive 54 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in order to make minimum the risk of drought and fire impacts and 55 the future of most Amazon tree species.”36.
