摘要

The response of tropical forests to drought is a topic of considerable research and public-policy interest, and has been identified as a possible tipping point in Earths climate system. Drought in tropical forests has seasonal, episodic and chronic aspects; although seasonal and episodic events have been broadly studied for the Amazon tropical forests, chronic drought has received less attention, mainly because of the challenges involved in detecting long-term drought trends. On page 86 of this issue, Zhou et al. have significantly expanded the tropical-forest research programme by focusing on chronic drought in Africa's Congo Basin, a region that has been the subject of much less investigation than the Amazon.
