Some patent trolls, to better coerce settlement, purposely misrepresent matters such as the strength of their patents, the extent of other settlements, and their actual willingness to litigate.
Our effort to include small wetlands (< 10 ha) in our pre-settlement reconstruction increased the total estimated extent of pre-settlement wetlands by 25% compared to previous work [15, 16].

The extent of human settlement in the Amazon remains hotly debated, partly because huge swaths of the 6-million-square-kilometer rainforest remain unstudied by archaeologists.
Of this total, the extent of pre-settlement wetlands was estimated at ~ 24,984 km2 (~ 30% of total land cover), reflecting the sum of the current wetlands (~ 11,032 km2) and converted wetlands (~ 13,953 km2) as in Table 1.
