Comprehend these dynamics is essential to better understand the responses of environments to ongoing climatic changes. This study aims to analyze, with AMERIFLUX and LBA network measurements, the variability of NEE and climate variables in four different tropical coverages: Pantanal, Amazonia, Caatinga and Cerrado (savanna). Furthermore, was estimate the Gross Primary Productivity (GPP). We found a distinct seasonality of meteorological variables and CO2 fluxes in each site. Despite acting mostly as a CO2 sink, some environments already show worrying source data in certain periods, pointed out as a direct effect of the reduction of photosynthesis caused by land use changes. The preserved forest plays an important role in maintaining rainfall at a regional and global level, and its maintenance makes it possible, by the way, an important tool in combating global warming via carbon sequestration by trees, which requires commitment and public policies of environmental preservation and recovery of degraded areas. %@area MET %@electronicmailaddress gabriel.costa@ufopa.edu.br %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress %@electronicmailaddress tiagobentes1@gmail.com %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group %@group MET-MET-DIPGR-INPE-MCTI-GOV-BR %@usergroup lattes %@isbn 9781803566 %@nexthigherunit 8JMKD3MGPCW/3F35TRS %@nexthigherunit 8JMKD3MGPCW/46KUATE %@affiliation Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (UFOPA) %@affiliation Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) %@affiliation Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS) %@affiliation Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) %@affiliation Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS) %@affiliation Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso (UFMT) %@affiliation Universidade de Cuiabá %@affiliation Universidade Federal Rural da Amazônia (UFRA) %@affiliation Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (UFOPA) %@affiliation Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (UFOPA) %@affiliation Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (UFOPA) %@affiliation Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (UFOPA) %@affiliation Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (UFOPA) %@affiliation Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará (UFOPA) %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %@versiontype publisher %@holdercode {isadg {BR SPINPE} ibi 8JMKD3MGPCW/3DT298S} %@doi 10.5772/intechopen.110533 %2 sid.inpe.br/plutao/2023/06.15.13.57.55
