River migration and forest loss in the Amazon basin

<p>The repository contains supporting spatial data for the manuscript (under review). The Methods section detail how the data was processed and filtered.</p> <p>Content:</p> <p>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <em>AmazonMigrationRates.zip</em> - River migration rates of 23,000 Amazon reaches, 1985-2020. This point layer includes the migration rates for each year (where the centerlines of subsequent years were valid in a reach), the long-term average migration rates for the entire period, the number and percentage of mapped years, and the SWORD<sup>1</sup> node ID and HydroSHEDS<sup> 2</sup> PFAF_ID.</p> <p><em>2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>AmazonCenterlines.zip - </em>Amazonian river centerlines, 1984-2020. These are raster tiles of the centerlines, color-coded as in the manuscript figures.</p> <p>3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <em>AmazonRiverDeforestation.zip </em>- raster tiles of 2000 forest areas removed by river migration or flooding during 2001-2020.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>References</p> <p>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Altenau, E.
