Methodology for the estimation of land suitability for Atriplex L. [Amaranthaceae Juss. (s.l.)] cultivation in arid and semi-arid regions
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2019)
Atriplex includes species with multiple purposes such as biomass for energy production, for bioremediation of soils contaminated with metals, or soil conservation. In Chile, 29 Atriplex species have been recorded, of which ...
Accelerated wheat production in semi-arid developing regions

Environmental Effects of Irrigation in Arid and Semi-Arid Regions
(Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, INIA, 2009)
Variation of morphological and chemical traits in sexes of the dioecious perennial grass Poa ligularis in relation to shrub cover and aridity in Patagonian ecosystems
(Springer Tokyo, 2016-01)
Sexes of dioecious species may have dimorphic responses to environmental variation due to differences in resource requirements and reproductive costs. We analyzed the effect of aridity/relative shrub cover, and vicinity ...
Latent heat loss and sweat gland histology of male goats in an equatorial semi-arid environment
(Springer, 2014-03-01)
The objective of this work was to quantify the heat loss by cutaneous evaporation of goats in an equatorial semi-arid environment. The latent heat loss from the body surfaces of these ten undefined breed goats was measured ...
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 ...
Variations in the coverage of biological soil crusts along an aridity gradient in the central-west Argentina
(Gauthier-Villars/Editions Elsevier, 2020-11)
Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) play a fundamental role in arid and semiarid areas of South America. Nevertheless, little attention has been paid to the distribution and coverage of them, and studies about biocrusts are ...
Rodent middens, a new method for Quaternary research in arid zones of South America Paleomadrigueras de roedores, un nuevo método para el estudio del Cuaternario en zonas áridas de Sudamérica
(2002)
In arid and semi-arid regions of South America, historical evidence for climate and vegetation change is scarce despite its importance for determining reference conditions and rates of natural variability in areas susceptible ...
