The authors write that，having survived warm periods in the past，the trees will 5 survive future warming，provided there are no other major environmental changes. 6 extreme droughts and forest fires will impact Amazonia as temperatures 7 ， the trees will stand the direct impact of higher temperatures.The authors 8 that as well as reducing greenhouse gas emissions to minimize the risk of drought and fire， conservation policy should remain 9 on preventing deforestation(采伐森林) for agriculture and mining. The study disagrees with other recent researches which predicted tree species’ extinctions 10 relatively small increases in global average air temperatures. Study coauthor Dr Simon Lewis (UCL Geography) said the 11 were good news for Amazon tree species，but warned that drought and overexploitation of the forest remained major 12 to the Amazon’s future.
