' Powerful' Financial Times ' More twists and turns than a Hollywood spy thriller' Spectator ' A story we all need to hear' New Statesman ' Gripping... Araujo's accretion of detail has a powerful effect' New York Times ' Excellent' Kirkus Reviews Deep in the heart of the Amazon, an entire region has lived under the control of one notorious land baron: Josélio de Barros. Josélio cut a grisly path to success: having arrived in the jungle with a shady past, he quickly made a name for himself as an invincible thug who grabbed massive tracts of public land, burned down the jungle and executed or enslaved anyone trying to stop him. Enter Dezinho, the leader of a small but robust farm workers' union fighting against land grabs, ecological destruction, and blatant human rights abuses. When Dezinho was killed in a shocking assassination, the local community held its breath. Would Josélio, whom everyone knew had ordered the hit, finally be brought to account? Or would authorities look the other way, as they had hundreds of times before? Dezinho's widow, Dona Joelma, was not about to let that happen. After his murder, she stepped into the spotlight, orchestrating a huge push to bring national media attention to the injustices in the Amazon. Set against the backdrop of Bolsonaro's devastating cuts to environmental protections, Brazil's rapidly changing place in the geopolitical spectrum, and the Amazon's crucial role in climate change, Masters of the Lost Land is both a gripping epic into one of the last wild places on Earth and an urgent illustration of how people are fighting for - and winning - justice for their futures and the environment.

The Amazon River and its associated tropical rainforest represent one of the words most important freshwater systems. The Amazon responsible for globally important water, nutrient and energy fluxes. Together the river and rainforest account for ~20% of global freshwater, 10% of global species diversity and store roughly 150Pg of carbon. Alterations to the Amazon's landscape including deforestation, agricultural expansion, infrastructure development, increased forest fire occurrence and changing precipitation patterns threaten the stability of the system. In this thesis, I work toward a better understanding how water resources are responding to changes in climate and land cover across the Amazon Basin. In Chapter 1, I investigate how deforestation and climate change have altered the water balance in the Amazon Basin. Specifically, I used statistical analyses to quantify changes in streamflow, groundwater storage, and evapotranspiration, and link these the observed changes in land cover and precipitation. In Chapter 2, I focus on how groundwater dynamics are altered by deforestation and conversation to agriculture. To address these question, I developed a groundwater model for a site representative of the heavily defrosted southern headwaters of the Amazon Basin. Together, these efforts reveal how deforestation and climate change are effecting water resources in the Amazon. Better understanding these effects will be crucial to developing policy that balances resource development and environmental impact in this critically important region.

The Amazon -that name was given to the biggest river on earth and is often used for the whole area of its basin too. This geographical region is currently referred to as Amazonia, thus emphasizing the peculiar character of its aquatic and terrestrial reaches. The Amazon embodied the dream of many a naturalist to explore what for a long time was a terra incognita. In recent years, however, Amazonia has emerged as a main centre for 'development' by some of the countries in which it lies and by foreign industrialized nations. The development projects and enterprises have aroused woridwide interest and have given rise to discussions on their aims and their consequences to the Amazonian nature. Limnological and ecological investigations in Amazonia started only about 40 years ago. The editor had the good fortune to partake in them from the very beginning. He spent his decisive years in Amazonia, and dedicated his life's work to that research and to that country and the Amazonian people. Nearing the end of his scicntific activities, hc is gratcful to bc ablc to summarizc in this book most of the knowledge we possess at present of Amazonian limnology and landscape ecology.
