Environmental Effects of Irrigation in Arid and Semi-Arid Regions
(Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, INIA, 2009)
Microbial communities from arid environments on a global scale. A systematic review
(Soc Biolgia Chile, 2020)
Arid environments are defined by the lack of water availability, which is directly related to the mean annual precipitation (MAP), and high values of solar irradiation, which impacts the community composition of animals, ...
Latent heat loss of dairy cows in an equatorial semi-arid environment
(Springer, 2012-09-01)
The present study aimed to evaluate evaporative heat transfer of dairy cows bred in a hot semi-arid environment. Cutaneous (E (S)) and respiratory (E (R)) evaporation were measured (810 observations) in 177 purebred and ...

An inventory of cryospheric landforms in the arid diagonal of South America (high Central Andes, Atacama region, Chile)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-05)
An integral, glacial and periglacial, inventory of the cryosphere in the Atacama region in Chile was carried out to estimate the amount of frozen water reserves in this arid to hyper-arid region. The inventory was carried ...
Aridity and grazing as convergent selective forces: an experiment with an Arid Chaco bunchgrass
(Wiley, 2010-10)
It has been proposed that aridity and grazing are convergent selective forces: each one selects for traits conferring resistance to both. However, this conceptual model has not yet been experimentally validated. The aim ...
Energy conservation and solar energy use for cooking impact of its massive adoption in the arid zone of Argentina
(International Association for Sustainable Development and Management, 2014-03)
The use of solar energy is essential in transforming today's human environments into tomorrow's sustainable human habitats. This paper presents the positive impacts produced by the adoption of energy-efficient cooking ...
