Regional model simulations of the 2008 drought in southern South America using a consistent set of land surface properties
(American Meteorological Society, 2014-09)
This work discusses the land surface-atmosphere interactions during the severe drought that took place in 2008 in southern South America. The drought was among the most severe in the last fifty years both in terms of ...
An estimation of the land-atmosphere coupling strength in South America using the Global Land Data Assimilation System
(Wiley, 2015-03)
The aim of this study is to identify regions of strong land surface –atmosphere coupling for the austral summer over South America. To accomplish this, a statistical methodology is applied to estimate the interactions of ...
Synergizing global tools to monitor progress towards land degradation neutrality: Trends.Earth and the World Overview of Conservation Approaches and Technologies sustainable land management database
(Elsevier, 2019-03)
As part of the Sustainable Development Goals, countries are striving to achieve by 2030 a land degradation neutral world. Land degradation neutrality (LDN) is the state whereby the amount and quality of land resources ...
Relationship between the change in land use in the Aconcagua Basin and its correlative sandy coastline. Central Chile Relación entre el cambio de uso del suelo en la cuenca del Aconcagua y su litoral arenoso correlativo. Chile central
(2011)
In the Aconcagua basin the modernization and intensification of land use have resulted both in an agricultural conversion, and the increase in area cultivated. This process has been very intense as far that have entered ...
Hydrometeorological forecasts and their sensitivity to land cover changes
(2015-03-04)
Regional land-atmosphere feedbacks play an important role in the occurrence of extremes in southern South America. However, they are not fully understood. Currently, many atmospheric models have simplified land surface ...
Land tenure and biological communities in dry Chaco forests of northern Argentina
(Elsevier, 2015-12)
Environmental factors and land use control habitat quality and resources availability, thus regulating species distribution. Land tenure in general, and particularly traditional indigenous properties, strongly influence ...
Assessment of swaps and persistence in land cover changes in a subtropical periurban region, NW Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2014-05)
A detailed spatial analysis of land cover changes was carried out in the periurban area of Great San Miguel de Tucumán and Sierra de San Javier, subtropical Argentina. Post-classification comparison of land cover maps of ...
Land-use redistribution compensated for ecosystem service losses derived from agriculture expansion, with mixed effects on biodiversity in a NW Argentina Watershed
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2017-08)
Areas of land abandonment and agriculture expansion usually differ in location and associated environmental characteristics; thus, land-use redistribution affects the provision of ecosystem services and biodiversity ...
Growth and survival of juvenile Pomacea canaliculata (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae) in plain streams associated to different land uses
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-03)
Pomacea canaliculata is an apple snail that has become an invasive species in several countries. In this research, through two simultaneous experiments, we assessed the effects of different land uses (urban, agriculture, ...
