Drying is a natural phenomenon that is manifest through rainfall below normal limits with duration, frequency and severity difficult to predict (Pacheco, Parra, & Avilés, 2017). During the dry season, the flow of the rivers ...

Despite the importance of mountain ranges as water providers, knowledge of their climate variability is still limited, mostly due to a combination of data scarcity and heterogeneous orography. The tropical Andes share many ...

In the Andes environment, rainfall and temperature can be extremely variable in space and time. The determination of climate variability and climate change needs a special assessment for water management. This paper examines ...

Climate change impact in the Andes regions is expected to have a large influence on water resources as in many other regions of the world. However, a major problem for climate change impact studies on the region is the ...

The sustainable management of sediments is an untreated problem in Ecuador, however, it is of great importance to be directly related to water resources, to the use and use of them, and to environmental and ecological ...

Investigation was made on the climate change signal for hydrometeorological and hydrological variables along the Paute River basin, in the southern Ecuador Andes. An adjusted quantile perturbation approach was used for ...
