Why does air passage over forest yield more rain?: examining the coupling between rainfall, pressure and atmospheric moisture content

The influence of forest loss on rainfall remains poorly understood. Addressing this challenge, Spracklen et al. recently presented a pantropical study of rainfall and land cover that showed that satellite-derived rainfall measures were positively correlated with the degree to which model-derived air...
