The article also describes high water, so it’s variation over the year which is said to be the catastrophe… *sigh*.
“The record river low comes only 16 months after river levels reached a record high of 29.77 meters in Manaus. / The fluctuations are consistent with climate models for the region, which project heavier rainfall in the wet season, especially in the western and northern parts of the Amazon, and less precipitation in the dry season, especially in the southern Amazon. This year’s drought helped spur a large increase in wildfires and a spike in forest degradation in recent months”.
The final words, “a spike in forest degradation in recent months”, are actually funny, describing a (normal) dry period as “forest degradation”.
