  abstract = {{I}n large hydrological basins, water mass loading can produce significant crustal deformation. {W}e compare the monthly vertical component of 18 {GPS} sites located in the {A}mazon basin, with the deflection models derived from {G}ravity {R}ecovery and {C}limate {E}xperiment ({GRACE}) observations on the one hand and derived from {HYDL}, a global hydrological model, on the other hand. {T}he {GPS} data set includes the largest deflections by hydrological loading ever recorded at two stations located in the center of the basin. {T}he main result of the study is that the {GRACE} solution produced by {GRGS} ({G}roupe de {R}echerche en {G}eodesie {S}patiale, {T}oulouse, {F}rance) produces the best agreement with the {G}lobal {N}avigation {S}atellite {S}ystems series with a correlation coefficient up to 0.9 in the center of the basin, although 70% at best of the {RMS} variation in the {GPS} series is accounted for.},
