Intra-seasonal rainfall variability in the Amazon basin related to large-scale circulation patterns: a focus on western Amazon–Andes transition region
(Royal Meteorological Society, 2018-04)
This study aims to relate the intra‐seasonal rainfall variability over the Amazon basin to atmospheric circulation patterns (CPs), with particular attention to extreme rainfall events in the Amazon–Andes region. The CPs ...
Deforestation in the Kayabi Indigenous Territory: Simulating and Predicting Land Use and Land Cover Change in the Brazilian Amazon
(Instituto Panamericano de Geografía e Historia, 2019)
Impacts of satellite-based precipitation datasets on rainfall-runoff modeling of the Western Amazon basin of Peru and Ecuador
(Elsevier, 2015-09)
Satellites are an alternative source of rainfall data used as input to hydrological models in poorly gauged or ungauged regions. They are also useful in regions with highly heterogeneous precipitation, such as the tropical ...
Malaria Situation in the Peruvian Amazon during the COVID-19 Pandemic
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2020)
The Peruvian Ministry of Health reports a near absence of malaria cases in the Amazon region during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the rapid increase in SARS-CoV-2 infections has overwhelmed the Peruvian health system, ...

Contrasting North–South changes in Amazon wet-day and dry-day frequency and related atmospheric features (1981–2017)
(Springer, 2019)
This study provides an updated analysis of the evolution of seasonal rainfall intensity in the Amazon basin, considering the 1981–2017 period and based on HOP (interpolated HYBAM observed precipitation) and CHIRPS (The ...
Revisiting wintertime cold air intrusions at the east of the Andes: propagating features from subtropical Argentina to Peruvian Amazon and relationship with large-scale circulation patterns
(Springer, 2013)
This study investigates the spatial and temporal characteristics of cold surges that propagates northward along the eastern flank of the Andes from subtropical to tropical South America analysing wintertime in situ daily ...
New records of bats from the northern region of the Peruvian Amazon秘鲁亚马孙北部地区蝙蝠新记录
(Chinese Academy of Sciences, 2011-04)
The northern Amazon Basin in Peru is one of the most diverse areas for small mammals in the world. In this work, I present information related to the diversity of bat species in the Amazonian region of Iquitos, Peru, where ...
Contrasting regional discharge evolutions in the Amazon basin (1974–2004)
(Elsevier, 2009-09-15)
Former hydrological studies in the Amazon Basin generally describe annual discharge variability on the main stem. However, the downstream Amazon River only represents the mean state of the Amazonian hydrological system. ...
