Some ground prooving and matching with topography and soil type might tell us more.
For ecample how is the undrestory behaving through out.
Furhter I would like to know the impact of the additional atmospheric carbon as I understand that reduces water demand by plants.
As the authors state, early days for any conclusion re models.
Remember the Sahara rainforest.

It will be cool to see if the areas that have been cultivated with the "black earth" method of biochar mixed with fish waste (as used by some indigenous people in the area) to control water and nutrient runoff do better than other areas or not. If so it might make for a means of revitalizing the agriculturally damaged regions of these forests.

If only the "climate change alarmists" had my experience in "computer modeling techniques", they would have realized their predictions as it affects the planet's climate were doomed to failure.
AlGore should leave this kind of science to those of us who know what we're doing. If "climate change advocates" want to continue being sucked into buying the worthless $30 books that lawyer politicians hawk to the gullible, then it is their bank accounts that continue to be the "losers".
Like they say, the primary purpose of lawyer politicians is to "separate their clients from as much of their money as possible". My environmentalist next door neighbor has twenty some books written about "climate change", I checked the background on most of the authors and most were either lawyers or journalists, none of whom could solve an equation in differential calculus, but I can.
Enjoy the present cycle of global warming while you can with the abundant food supply it has given us (compared to the ice ages when you couldn't grow wheat & corn in Americas heartland & most of Europe due to the glacial ice cover), it may last only a couple thousand more years.
