                         modes in the pacific and in the Atlantic on Amazonian rainfall is 
                         investigated. The composite technique of the Amazon precipitation 
                         anomalies is used in this work. The basis years for these 
                         composites are those in the period 1960-1998 with occurrences of 
                         extremes in the Southern Oscillation (El niņo or La Niņa) and the 
                         north/south warm (or cold) sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies 
                         dipole pattern in the tropical Atlantic. Warm (cold) dipole means 
                         positive (negative) anomalies in the tropical North Atlantic and 
                         negative (positive) anomalies in the tropical South Atlantic.

                         Oscillation (El Niņo or La Niņa) and independently for north/south

                         Atlantic present values (magnitude and sign) consistent with those 
                         found in previous works on the relationshi between Amazon rainfall 
                         variations and the SSt anomalies in the tropical Pacific and 
                         Atlantic. However, austral summer and autumn composites for the 
                         years with simultaneous occurrences of El Niņo and warm 
                         north/south dipole of the SST anomalies in the tropical Atlantic 
                         show negative precipitation anomalies extending eastward over the 
                         center-castern Amazon. This result indicates the important role 
                         played by the tropical Atlantic in the Amazon anomalous rainfall
