Clibadiolide, a sesquiterpene lactone esterified with a homoditerpene from Clibadium pittierii
(1988)The aerial parts of Clibadium pittierii afforded in addition to known melampolides two new ones, one being esterified with a homoditerpenic acid and the homoditerpenic acid itself. The structures were elucidated by high ... -
Clifford Geometry: a Seminar
(1995-12-15)Este documento fue desarrollado durante el seminario de posgrado SP--1313 (Seminario en Matemática A) en 1995; por razones de difusión, fue redactado en inglés. Se trata de una exposición de los aspectos de la geometría ... -
El clima a sotavento de las montañas de Costa Rica
(Tópicos Meteorológicos N°2, 1992)Las montañas y cordilleras de Costa Rica actúan como un obstáculo al viento Alisio predominante produciendo condiciones climáticas contrastantes entre ambas vertientes (Pacífico y Caribe). Las regiones a sotavento, en ... -
Clima y temperatura sub-superficial del mar en Bahía Culebra, Golfo de Papagayo, Costa Rica
(Revista Biología Tropical, 60 (2): 159-171, 2012-04)Bahía Culebra, Golfo de Papagayo, Costa Rica is a seasonal upwelling area. To determine the relationship of climate and the subsurface temperature variability at Bahía Culebra, we analyzed nine records of sea subsurface ... -
Clima y variabilidad climática en Costa Rica a través de información histórica del siglo XIX
(2002)Se ha presentado en este trabajo una breve relación histórica del desarrollo de la meteorología, especialmente durante los siglos XVIII y XIX, y de las primeras observaciones meorológicas tomadas en Costa Rica. Durante la ... -
El clima, la Historia Natural y las instituciones estatales en Costa Rica: el caso de la Oficina de Estadística (1860-1888)
(2012-08-05)Este trabajo estudia y analiza la evolución de la Meteorología, como la ciencia que investiga la atmósfera y sus fenómenos, en la Oficina de Estadística (1861), como marco institucional promotor de esta disciplina. Trata ... -
Clima, variabilidad y cambio climático en la Vertiente Caribe de Costa Rica: Un estudio básico para la actividad bananera
(2013-09)Este Informe Final (IF) describe en forma sintética, los alcances y productos del proyecto “Clima, variabilidad y cambio climático en la Vertiente Caribe de Costa Rica: Un estudio básico para la actividad bananera”, en ... -
Climate and Climate Variability in the Arenal River Basin of Costa Rica
(2003-01)This work examines some of the effects of climate and climate variability in the Arenal River basin of Costa Rica, the site of the largest hydropower complex in the country. The Arenal system, which drains part of the ... -
Climate change and growth scenarios for California wildfire
(2011-11)Large wildfire occurrence and burned area are modeled using hydroclimate and landsurface characteristics under a range of future climate and development scenarios. The range of uncertainty for future wildfire regimes is ... -
Climate change scenarios and sea level rise estimates for California 2008 Climate Change Scenarios Assessment
(2009-03)For the 2008 California Climate Change Assessment, to further investigate possible future climate changes in California, a set of 12 climate change model simulations was selected and evaluated. From the Intergovernmental ... -
Climate change, ecosystems and smallholder agriculture in Central America: an introduction to the special issue
(2017-03)Central America is one of the regions most exposed to climate change (Giorgi 2006). A narrow isthmus between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, it is strongly affected by droughts, hurricanes and the El Niño-southern ... -
Climate Change, Growth, and California Wildfire
(2009-03)Large wildfire occurrence and burned area are modeled using hydroclimate and landsurface characteristics under a range of future climate and development scenarios. The range of uncertainty for future wildfire regimes is ... -
Climate change-based modeling of potential land use arrangements for coffee (coffea arabica) and forest in Costa Rica
(2017-12)Besides the need to reduce its own emissions, the challenge of the agricultural sector worldwide is also to adapt to a changing and more variable climate. Coffee is an important crop in Costa Rica based on cultivated area ... -
Climate Forecasts Improve for Latin America
(2003)NOAA/AOML and its partners at the University of Costa Rica (UCR) are improving the way climate forecasts are prepared at Regional Climate Outlook Forums (RCOFs) in Latin America. The RCOFs, which began in 1997, bring outside ... -
Climate of Central America and the Caribbean, Climate of
(2005)Central America and the Caribbean span the deep tropics and subtropics. Because of the tropical maritime location temperature changes throughout the region are generally small, and rainfall is by far the most important ... -
Climate Perspectives in the Intra-Americas Seas
(2020)The Intra–Americas Seas region is known for its relevance to air–sea interaction processes, the contrast between large water masses and a relatively small continental area, and the occurrence of extreme events. The differing ... -
Climate precursors of multidecadal drought variability in the western United States
(2004-12-07)Low-frequency (periodicities lower than 20 years) hydrologic variability in the western United States over the past 500 years is studied using available tree-ring reconstructions of Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), ... -
Climate scenarios and impacts of droughts and other hydrometeorological events in the Central American dry corridor
(2019)Predicting rainfall during April-May-June (AMJ), as the first peak of the rainy season in the Central American isthmus, is very important since it has been observed that more or less humid conditions during AMJ tend to ... -
