SAO PAULO – Brazil is set to build a 320-meter (1,049-foot) tower deep in the jungle that will operate as an atmospheric observatory to study climate change in the Amazon region and its relation to global warming, the local press reported Saturday.
The project, which has the cooperation of the German government, plans to provide more trustworthy estimates on the greenhouse effect based on climate in the tropical jungle over the next 30 years, according to reports from Manaus, capital of the northern state of Amazonas, published in the daily Folha de Sao Paulo.
The tower, with an investment of 24 million reais (some $12.9 million), is scheduled to begin operations by the end of 2011.
