The utility of daily large-scale climate data in the assessment of climate change impacts on daily streamflow in California
(2010-06-30)
Three statistical downscaling methods were applied to NCEP/NCAR reanalysis (used as a surrogate for the best possible general circulation model), and the downscaled meteorology was used to drive a hydrologic model over ...
Temporal dynamics of runoff and soil loss on a plot scale under a coffee plantation on steep soil (Ultisol), Costa Rica
(2015)
Soil erosion is a serious threat for cultivated soils on steep slopes under tropical conditions. In Costa Rica, coffee plantations are widespread on such steep slopes in several basins used for hydroelectric generation, ...
Utility of daily vs. monthly large-scale climate data: an intercomparison of two statistical downscaling methods
(2008-03-13)
Downscaling of climate model data is essential to local and regional impact analysis. We compare two methods of statistical downscaling to produce continuous, gridded time series of precipitation and surface air temperature ...
Integration of Open Source Tools for Studying Large-Scale Distribution Networks
(2017)
The penetration of Low Carbon Technologies (LCTs) is expected to increase in the
near future given the attractive incentives from governments, the cost-effectiveness of the technologies
and the appearance of Smart Grid ...
A biocomputational platform for the automated construction of large-scale mathematical models of miRNA-transcription factor networks for studies on gene dosage compensation
(2016-11-09)
Cancer complexity and resistance is mediated by
cell-to-cell heterogeneity, which is the consequence of the
enormous instability of its genetic material. It is unknown how
cancer cells are able to withstand the effects ...
Mobbing and burnout in the service sector: Psychometric and empirical findings from Colombia, Costa Rica, and the USA
(2016-07)
Relations between mobbing and burnout were examined. A sample of service sector workers (n=1215) completed the Leymann Inventory of Psychological Terrorization (LIPT) and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Factorial structure ...
Variability of the Caribbean low-level jet during borealwinter: large-scale forcings
(2016)
An index capturing the anomalies of the zonal wind at 925 hPa from 1950 to 2010 was defined to explore the relationship between the fluctuations of the Caribbean low-level jet (CLLJ) and the main climate variability modes ...
Métodos dinámicos y estadísticos de reducción de escala: Aplicaciones al clima, variabilidad climática y cambio climático. Trabajo in extenso.
(Revista REVIBEC, 2009)
Actualmente, las salidas de algunos Modelos Atmosféricos de Circulación General Acoplados tienen buena habilidad para simular el comportamiento de variables (circulaciones) de gran escala o escala global, las cuales a su ...
Some Characteristics of the Annual Precipitation Cycle in Central America and their Relationships with its Surrounding Tropical Oceans
(2002)
Usando 94 estaciones pluviométricas de registro diario, se calcularon los ciclos anuales promedio dominantes en la región centroamericana por medio del análisis de funciones ortogonales empíricas. Esto permitió estimar ...
