It is the lowest since measurements started 122 years ago. The previous record low level was recorded last year, but toward the end of October.<\/p>\n<p>The Negro River\u2019s water level might drop even more in coming weeks based on forecasts for low rainfall in upstream regions, according to the geological service\u2019s predictions. Andre Martinelli, the agency\u2019s hydrology manager in Manaus, was quoted as saying the river was expected to continue receding until the end of the month. <\/p>\n<p>Water levels in Brazil\u2019s Amazon always rise and fall with its rainy and dry seasons, but the dry portion of this year has been much worse than usual. All of the major rivers in the Amazon basin are at critical levels, including the Madeira River, the Amazon River\u2019s longest tributary. <\/p>\n<p>The Negro River drains about 10% of the Amazon basin and is the world\u2019s sixth-largest by water volume. Manaus, the biggest city in the rainforest, is where the Negro joins the Amazon River.<\/p>\n<div class=\"Enhancement\" data-align-center=\"\">\n<div class=\"Enhancement-item\">\n<div

Gracita Barbosa, 28, works as a cashier on a floating shop on the Negro River. She\u2019s out of work because boats that once stopped there can no longer navigate the river due to the low water levels.
