Amazon Oxygen Production Percentage

Amazon is responsible for 9% of the world's oxygen according to scientists

The Amazon, one of the world's most important ecosystems, is responsible for producing about 16% of the oxygen produced on land, or 9% when including the ocean's contribution.

This is according to a new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience, which found that the Amazon rainforest is a major source of oxygen for the planet.

The study's findings are based on data from the Global Carbon Project, which tracks the amount of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the atmosphere. The researchers found that the Amazon rainforest absorbs about 2 billion tons of carbon dioxide each year, and releases about 1 billion tons of oxygen.

This makes the Amazon rainforest a major player in the global carbon cycle, and helps to regulate the Earth's climate. The study's findings also highlight the importance of protecting the Amazon rainforest, which is threatened by deforestation and other human activities.
