The origin of the IPCC’s claim that 40% of the Amazon susceptible to a slight change in rainfall claim has been traced to a 1999 educational web page from the Instituto de Pesquisa Ambiental da Amazonia entitled Fire in the Amazon, IPAM 1999

See the cute little trees with faces?

It was deleted in 2003 and was located via the Internet Wayback Machine.

The IPAM has a recent message, 5th July 2010, (in Portuguese) about the matter, here. Can anyone translate?
