Análisis del impacto del paso de los Ciclones Tropicales en el Mar Caribe sobre Costa Rica en las últimas décadas
(2009-03)El estudio de la actividad de los ciclones tropicales así como su caracterización histórica en la región centroamericana, es una prioridad para mitigar el impacto que estos fenómenos provocan en las diversas zonas del ... -
Aplicación de análisis multivariado al campo de anomalías de precipitación en Centroamérica
(1999-12)Because climate signals have components in different time and space scales it is difficult to identify the causes of climate variability when only one or a few stations are analyzed. Multivariate analysis of one or several ... -
Aplicación de un método de análisis de Fourier para sequencias temporales extremadamente largas: transformada discreta de 21 años de registro horario del nivel del mar en Quepos, Costa Rica
