Extreme rainfall variations under climate change scenarios. Case of study in an andean tropical river basin
(2022)
Maximum rainfall events have triggered hazards that harm ecosystems and populations. Climate change could modify these extreme events, becoming more severe and frequent. Knowing the patterns of Spatio-temporal changes in ...
Coupling between the Andes and the Amazon River Basin and their feedbacks with the Tropical North Atlantic and Tropical Pacific Ocean
(2017-10-10)
IIn this thesis we study the hydroclimatic interrelations between the Andes and the Amazon River basin with the Tropical North Atlantic and the Tropical Pacific. Particularly, we estimate the separate and conjoint surface ...
Assessment of quarterly, semiannual and annual models to forecast monthly rainfall anomalies: the case of a tropical andean basin
(2022)
Rainfall forecasting is essential to manage water resources and make timely decisions to mitigate adverse effects related to unexpected events. Considering that rainfall drivers can change throughout the year, one approach ...
A comparative performance analysis of TRMM 3B42 (TMPA) versions 6 and 7 for hydrological applications over Andean-Amazon river basins
(American Meteorological Society, 2014-04)
The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission 3B42 precipitation estimates are widely used in tropical regions for hydrometeorological research. Recently, version 7 of the product was released. Major revisions to the algorithm ...
Transient river response, captured by channel steepness and its concavity
(2015-01-01)
Mountain rivers draining tropical regions are known to be great conveyor belts carrying efficiently more than half of the global sediment flux to the oceans. Many tropical mountain areas are located in tectonically active ...

(ELSEVIER, 2015-01-01)
Mountain rivers draining tropical regions are known to be great conveyor belts carrying efficiently more than half of the global sediment flux to the oceans. Many tropical mountain areas are located in tectonically active ...
Hydroclimatology of the Upper Madeira River basin: spatio-temporal variability and trends
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-01-17)
Rising in the Andes, the Madeira River drains the southwestern part of the Amazon basin, which is characterized by high geographical, biological and climatic diversity. This study uses daily records to assess the spatio-temporal ...
Distribución y densidad de la trucha Oncorhynchus mykiss (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae) en los Andes venezolanos
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 1998)
Modelling Snowmelt Runoff from Tropical Andean Glaciers under Climate Change Scenarios in the Santa River Sub-Basin (Peru)
(MDPISuiza, 2021-12-10)
Effects of climate change have led to a reduction in precipitation and an increase in temperature across several areas of the world. This has resulted in a sharp decline of glaciers and an increase in surface runoff in ...
