It is quite strange that this paper seems to review future of tropical rainforest in the face of rising CO2 and rising temperature — unfortunately, it completely lacks to mention change in precipitation, which is just - another - very - important (climate change) metric — and it completely fails to mention modelling work of Peter Cox group — that predicts decline in rain forest productivity and growth due to decline in precipitation..

The standstil of global average temperature predicted by the «improved» modell compared to warming predicted from the «old» modell is nothing that happens in the future, it should have happened (but did not happen) in the past, from 1985 to 1999: The «improved» modell (green graph) shows that the global average temperature did not change from 1985 (= mean 1980 - 1990) to 1999 (= mean 1994 to 2004).
