Climate in the Monte Desert: Past trends, present conditions, and future projections
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009-02)
This paper documents the main features of climate and climate variability across the Monte Desert for the Last Glacial Maximum, the Glacial-Interglacial transition, and the Holocene on the basis of proxy records and for ...
Community structure and dynamics in climate networks
(SPRINGER, 2011)
We consider climate networks constructed from observed and model simulated fields of three climate variables and investigate their community structure. We find that for all fields the number of effective communities is ...
Spatial association to characterize the climate teleconnection patterns in Ecuador based on satellite precipitation estimates
(IEEE, 2020)
Climate teleconnections show remote and large-scale relationships between distant points on Earth. Their relations to precipitation are important to monitor and anticipate the anomalies that they can produce in the local ...
Correlated Morphological and Genetic Patterns in Embothrium coccineum (Proteaceae) Across Climate and Geography: Can Embothrium Survive Patagonian Climate Change?
(Csiro Publishing, 2013-12)
Adaptive radiation and reproductive isolation can determine the biogeographic structure of any species. We examine patterns of biotic variation in Embothrium coccineum, a Proteaceae tree that spans 20º of latitude and is ...
Sensitivity of Nothofagus dombeyi tree growth to climate changes along a precipitation gradient in northern Patagonia, Argentina
(Springer, 2015-03-14)
Understanding forest responses to climate variations is urgently needed for anticipating changes in forest composition and biodiversity. We use twelve tree-ring chronologies from Nothofagus dombeyi, the dominant tree at ...
Inferring long memory processes in the climate network via ordinal pattern analysis
(AIP Publishing, 2011)
We use ordinal patterns and symbolic analysis to construct global climate networks and uncover long- and short-term memory processes. Data analyzed are the monthly averaged surface air temperature (SAT field), and the ...
Understanding Weather and Hospital Admissions Patterns to Inform Climate Change Adaptation Strategies in the Healthcare Sector in Uganda
(MDPI, 2018)
Background: Season and weather are associated with many health outcomes, which can influence hospital admission rates. We examined associations between hospital admissions (all diagnoses) and local meteorological parameters ...
Catastrophe zones by hydro-meteorological events in Chile and contributions for a climate risk index
(PONTIFICA UNIV CATOLICA CHILE, INST GEOGRAFIA, 2016)
It is estimated that changes in global weather patterns and natural dynamics can cause a high incidence of extreme events, and therefore increase risk levels. In this study, we review the major climatic and hydrometeorological ...
Climate change perception, vulnerability, and readiness: inter-country variability and emerging patterns in Latin America.
In Latin America, there is scarce comparative research on variables associated with the perception of climate change. This hinders the ability of governments to take mitigation and adaptation measures in the face of the ...
