At 05:40 am we are going to explore the environment by canoing through the creeks and floodedforest.  There the floodplains landscape is the result of the hydro-geomorphologic dynamism of the river system and the precipitation regime leads to water-level oscillations of the Amazon river and its main tributaries (Junk et al.1989). So we explore at the well-defined high-water (aquatic phase) level, because it is during this period that we get closer to the canopy and by canoe paddle we have the chance to see the animals.
