Hydrological impacts in La Plata basin under 1.5, 2 and 3 °C global warming above the pre-industrial level
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2018-06)
The assessment of regional climate and hydrological impacts at different levels of global-mean temperature increase became vital to guide decision makers and water management planners after the adoption of the Paris Agreement ...
Multi-decadal Hydrological Retrospective: case study of Amazon floods and droughts
(Elsevier, 2017-06)
Recently developed methodologies such as climate reanalysis make it possible to create a historical record of climate systems. This paper proposes a methodology called Hydrological Retrospective (HR), which essentially ...
Impacts of land use on the hydrological response of tropical Andean catchments
(JOHN WILEY AND SONS LTD, 2016-10-30)
Changes in land use and land cover are major drivers of hydrological alteration in the tropical Andes. However, quantifying their impacts is fraught with difficulties because of the extreme diversity in meteorological ...
Human impact on the hydrology of the Andean páramos
(2006)
This paper analyses the problems involved in the conservation and management of the hydrological system of the South American páramo. The páramo consists of a collection of neotropical alpine grassland ecosystems covering ...
Parsimonious rainfall-runoff model construction supported by time series processing and validation of hydrological extremes – part 2: intercomparison of models and calibration approaches
(2014)
An intercomparison of different approaches for the construction and calibration of lumped conceptual rainfall-runoff models is made based on two case studies with unrelated meteorological and hydrological characteristics ...
A Decade of Hydrological Drought in Central-Western Argentina
(Frontiers Media, 2021-04)
Most of the water used for the development of the main socio-economic activities in Central-Western Argentina (CWA), an arid to semi-arid region, home to most of the Argentinean wine production, relies on surface streamflow ...
ENSO impact on hydrology in Peru
(Copernicus GmbH, 2013-04)
The El Niño and La Niña impacts on the hydrology of Peru were assessed based on discharge data (1968-2006) of 20 river catchments distributed over three drainage regions in Peru: 14 in the Pacific Coast (PC), 3 in the Lake ...
Human-Induced Changes in the Hydrology of the Western United States
(2008-02-22)
Observations have shown that the hydrological cycle of the western United States changed significantly over the last half of the 20th century. We present a regional, multivariable climate change detection and attribution ...
