Hurricane latent heat energy from annual Amazon deforestation runoff

This study analyzed latent heat flux from Amazon deforestation runoff above the Central/North American Boundary currents from 1988-2015. The purpose is to propose Atlantic hurricane intensification  from the heat flux via condensation. The author divided those currents into ten  areas of evaporation considering water budget data and regional and water-vapor-transport. A spreadsheet program consisting of two...
