The 2023 drought was exceptional (left panel). Without El Nino (green square), the drought would be almost the same (pink circle). But in a cooler climate (blue diamond), it would have been less intense and less frequent (right panel)...
Here is the attribution study we've done @wwattribution.bsky.social
In this article, @tomphillips.bsky.social mentioned that “Scientists attributed a 2023 drought that punished the Amazon to the natural climate phenomenon El Niño.” We did an attribution study (WWA) that shows climate change, not El Niño, main driver of the Amazon drought in 2023. Link below

Afetando muito!
In my state, 70% of the population voted for a right-wing government that denies climate change. Make no mistake, climate change, Amazon and Pantanal deforestation will affect everyone!
It is shocking to have severe fires in a wetland. This week, the smoke from fires in the Amazon and Pantanal (1S-16S) was brought to my home town in southern Brazil (27S) by a lower-level atmospheric jet (left). We could barely see the sun (right).
