Analyses of sediment deposits from Amazon basin paleolakes and the Amazon Fan indicate that rainfall in the basin during the LGM was lower than for the present, and this was almost certainly associated with reduced moist tropical vegetation cover in the basin. In present day, the Amazon receives approximately 9 feet of rainfall annually. There is a debate, however, over how extensive this reduction was. Some scientists argue that the rainforest was reduced to small, isolated 9366: 1217: 1187: 1890: 6416: 407: 418: 900: 1805: 1346: 1145: 1709: 816: 708: 1301: 1259: 2173:, published a report named: "A Balancing Act for Brazil's Amazonian States: An Economic Memorandum".

New research however, conducted by Leydimere Oliveira et al., has shown that the more rainforest is logged in the Amazon, the less precipitation reaches the area and so the lower the yield per hectare becomes. So despite the popular perception, there has been no economical advantage for Brazil from logging rainforest zones and converting these to pastoral fields. 867:

The increased area of fire-impacted forest coincided with a relaxation of environmental regulations from the Brazilian government.
