Preface to stable isotopes in hydrological studies in the tropics: Ecohydrological perspectives in a changing climate
(2019)
Tropical regions (comprised between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, 23.5°N to 23.5°S) cover approximately 36% of the Earth's landmass. They are home to 40% of the world's population, which is projected to increase ...
Mathematical modelling for ecohydrological management of an endangered endorheic salt lake in the semiarid Pampean region, Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2018-08)
In this work, we propose a mathematical model within a dynamic optimization framework to address the management of a salt lake in a semiarid region in Argentina (Chasicó Lake). The main objective is to elaborate strategies ...
Ecohydrological disturbances associated with roads: current knowledge, research needs, and management concerns with reference to the tropics
(2018)
Roads are a pervasive form of disturbance with potential to negatively affect ecohydrological processes. Some of the fastest and most rapid growth is occurring in developing countries, particularly in the tropics, where ...
Combined use of isotopic and hydrometric data to conceptualize ecohydrological processes in a high-elevation tropical ecosystem
(JOHN WILEY AND SONS LTD, 2016-08-15)
Few high-elevation tropical catchments worldwide are gauged, and even fewer are studied using combined hydrometric and isotopic data. Consequently, we lack information needed to understand processes governing rainfall–runoff ...
Global change effects on biogeochemical processes of Argentinian estuaries: an overview of vulnerabilities and ecohydrological adaptive outlooks
(Elsevier, 2015-02)
The aims of this work are to provide an overview of the current stresses of estuaries in Argentina and to propose adaptation strategies from an ecohydrological approach. Several Argentinian estuaries are impacted by ...
Combined use of isotopic and hydrometric data to conceptualize ecohydrological processes in a high-elevation tropical ecosystem

The effects of tree establishment on water and salts dynamics in naturally salt-affected grasslands
(Springer, 2007-03)
Plants, by influencing water fluxes across the ecosystem–vadose zone–aquifer continuum, can leave an imprint on salt accumulation and distribution patterns. We explored how the conversion of native grasslands to oak ...
The impact of significant imput of fine sediment on benthic fauna at tributary junctions: a case study of the Bermejo-Paraguay River confluence, Argentina
(Wiley, 2014-06)
This study examines the morphological features, suspended sediment inputs and hydraulic conditions within a large river in association with ecological patterns before and after a tributary confluence. In order to examine ...
Shallow groundwater dynamics in the Pampas: Climate, landscape and crop choice effects
(Elsevier Science, 2016-01)
Depending on its depth from the soil surface, shallow groundwater can represent a valuable water resource to alleviate droughts, or a stress agent that causes waterlogging and flooding in rainfed crops. Groundwater depth ...
