Climate in the Monte Desert: Past trends, present conditions, and future projections
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009-02)
This paper documents the main features of climate and climate variability across the Monte Desert for the Last Glacial Maximum, the Glacial-Interglacial transition, and the Holocene on the basis of proxy records and for ...
Understanding and predicting climate variability and change at monsoon regions
(Springer, 2013)
The chapter highlights selected scientific advances made under WCRP leadership in understanding climate variability and predictability at regional scales with emphasis on the monsoon regions. They are mainly related to a ...
Climate History in Latin America
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2018)
Written information about Latin American climates and related topics begins before the Spanish conquest, in the Maya and Aztec states of Mesoamerica. The development of Latin America’s climate history as a systematic ...
Analysis of the spatial distribution of scientific publications regarding vector-borne diseases related to climate variability in South America
(Elsevier, 2018-08)
Most vector-borne diseases exhibit a distinct seasonal pattern, which clearly suggests that they are weather sensitive. Rainfall, temperature, and other climate variables affect in many ways both the vectors and the pathogens ...
Trends in reference evapotranspiration and associated climate variables over the last 30 years (1984–2014) in the Pampa region of Argentina
(Springer Wien, 2019-05)
Agricultural production is sensitive to weather and thus directly affected by climate change. In Argentina, the geographic region known as the “Pampa” is at the heart of agricultural production. In this context, the objective ...

Future hydroclimatological changes in South America based on an ensemble of regional climate models
(Springer, 2019-01)
Changes between two time slices (1961–1990 and 2071–2100) in hydroclimatological conditions for South America have been examined using an ensemble of regional climate models. Annual mean precipitation (P), evapotranspiration ...
Climate anomalies and epidemics in South America at the end of the Colonial Period
(Springer, 2013-06)
Climate is one of the most of influential natural factors on society and economy. One of the consequences of climate anomalies is the emergence of diseases and epidemics, especially in agrarian societies. The current concern ...
The relative importance of soil properties and regional climate as drivers of productivity in southern Patagonia’s Nothofagus antarctica forests
(2018-06)
Soil texture and temperature-related variables were the variables that most contributed to Nothofagus antarctica forest height in southern Patagonia. This information may be useful for improving forest management, for ...
Evaluation of tourism climate conditions at three stations of Noshahr, Ramsar and Rasht using the physiological equivalent temperature and average predicted polling index
(Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, 2022)
