New genetic analysis has revealed that many Amazon tree species are likely to survive human-made climate warming in the coming century, contrary to previous findings that temperature increases would cause them to die out. A study, ________ in the latest edition of Ecology and Evolution, reveals the ________ age of some Amazonian tree species — more than 8 million years — and ________ shows that they have survived previous periods as warm as many of the global warming imagined periods ________ for the year 2100.
The authors write that, having survived warm periods in the past, the trees will ________ survive future warming, provided there are no other major environmental changes. ________ extreme droughts and forest fires will impact Amazonia as temperatures ________, the trees will stand the direct impact of higher temperatures.

The study disagrees with other recent researches which predicted tree species’ extinctions ________ relatively small increases in global average air temperatures.
Study co-author Dr Simon Lewis (UCL Geography) said the ________ were good news for Amazon tree species, but warned that drought and over-exploitation of the forest remained major ________ to the Amazon’s future.

“With a clearer ________ of the relative risks to the Amazon forest, we ________ that direct human impacts — such as forest clearances for agriculture or mining — should remain a key point of conservation policy.
