The tropical fbrest regions are of particular interest because they present a large source of heat and have been shown to have significant: impact on the extra tropical atmospheric circulation. They are also the most intense land-based convective centers. Thus, especiaIly from the tropics paleoccological infonuation is needed as benchmarks for climate modeling. The Affican data for LGM climates were published earlier including the reconstructed paleoprecipitation pattems The tropical South American LGM data were interpreted from pollen, geochemical, and. 6180 (stable oxygen isotope) data from Brazil and selected surrounding areas. The available, terrestrial data are consistent with the SST derived precipitation data for the tropical forests in. Brazil and for Africa. However, the impact of LGM climate extremes was less types) in Africa was probably reduced by 84%. In contrast, the Amazon humid forest area probably shrank to 54% of their present-day extension. Still, there are différent interpretations with respect to the amount of reduction of the Amazon forest area during the LGM. Although direct information about LGM climates in Amazonia is still limited the more detafied map, obtained in the present work, however, allows a more reliable characterization of the last glacial tropical enviroriment than previously published for the Amazon region.
