Are Brazilian catchments gaining or losing water? The effective area of tropical catchments
(2022-03-01)
Similar to most countries, the Brazilian water resources management considers topographically delineated catchment as a territorial unit for policy implementation. Yet, previous studies have shown that catchments are not ...
Eco-hydrological Functions in Forested Catchments of Southern Chile
(Springer New York, 2020-03)
Ecosystem functions in forests can vary significantly after disturbance, depending on changes in vegetation structure during succession and soil biophysical characteristics. We examined streamflow regulation, water storage ...
Comparative analysis of baseflow characteristics of two Andean catchments, Ecuador
(JOHN WILEY AND SONS LTD, 2018)
A radar reflectivity-runoff model for use in flood warning
(1990-12-01)
This model connects directly the radar reflectivity data and hydrological variable runoff. The catchment is discretized in pixels (4 Km × 4 Km) with the same resolution of the CAPPI. Careful discretization is made so that ...
The buffer capacity of riparian vegetation to control water quality in anthropogenic catchments from a legally protected area: A critical view over the Brazilian new forest code
(2019-01-01)
The riparian buffer width on watersheds has been modified over the last decades. The human settlements heavily used and have significantly altered those areas, for farming, urbanization, recreation and other functions. In ...
Production of clean water in agriculture headwater catchments: A model based on the payment for environmental services
(2021-09-01)
This study aimed to present a payment for ecosystem services model that promotes a symbiotic coexistence between agriculture and clean water production. The model favors application to headwater catchments where clean water ...
Simulação de perdas de solo em função de cenários de adequação ambiental em microbacias agrícolas
(2013-06-01)
In São Paulo state, deforestation and agriculture activities are increasing soil losses processes, especially in areas of susceptible soils where soil conservation practices are not adopted. Environmental adequacy at ...
Mercury fluxes in a natural forested Amazonian catchment (Serra do Navio, Amapa State, Brazil)
