One report I saw suggested that 40 % of the rainfall over Brazil is «recycled»
via evapotranspiration from the Amazon forest.

We estimate that removing 1 Pg C y − 1
via tropical afforestation would require at least 7 × 106 ha y − 1 of land, 0.09 Tg y − 1 of nitrogen, and 0.2 Tg y − 1 of phosphorous, and would increase
evapotranspiration from those lands by almost 50 %.
If the upper troposphere cools only by radiation (with probably some convection across the tropopause), but the surface transfers energy to the upper troposphere
via radiation, convection, and
evapotranspiration, why would the concurrent CO2 - induced warming be uniform?
Similarly, changes in terrestrial vegetation, such as the replacement of forests by tundra, feed back into the atmosphere
via changes in both albedo and latent heat flux from
evapotranspiration.
