A new circulation type classification based upon Lagrangian air trajectories
(2014-10-24)
A new classification method of the large-scale circulation characteristic for a specific
target area (NW Iberian Peninsula) is presented, based on the analysis of 90-h backward
trajectories arriving in this area calculated ...
Major sources of moisture for Antarctic ice-core sites identified through a Lagrangian approach
(2010-02-16)
A Lagrangian method of diagnosis was used to identify the major sources of moisture for
principal Antarctic ice-core sites by back-tracking the air masses that ultimately reach these regions
for a 5 yr period (2000–2004). ...
Drone-based hyperspectral and thermal imagery for quantifying upland rice productivity and water use efficiency after biochar application
(2021-05-11)
Miniature hyperspectral and thermal cameras onboard lightweight unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) bring new opportunities for monitoring land surface variables at unprecedented fine spatial resolution with acceptable accuracy. ...
Moisture sources for Central America: Identification of moisture sources using a Lagrangian analysis technique
(2010-03)
We herein present an analysis of the sources of atmospheric moisture for Central America using a Lagrangian technique. The results of backward and forward moisture tracking analysis using the FLEXPART model has enabled the ...
Central America [in State of the Climate in 2016]
(2017)
Central America experienced anomalies in temperature and precipitation in 2016. Mean temperatures were higher than average, particularly in Puerto Barrios, Choluteca, and San José. The increase in mean temperatures was due ...
Central America [in State of the Climate in 2013]
(2014-07)
In 2013, the vast majority of the monitored climate
variables reported here maintained trends established in
recent decades. ENSO was in a neutral state during the
entire year, remaining mostly on the cool side of ...
Tropical precipitation anomalies and d‐excess evolution during El Niño 2014‐16
(2016)
The last 2014-16 El Niño event was among the three strongest episodes on record. El Niño considerably changes annual and seasonal precipitation across the tropics. Here, we present a unique stable isotope data set of daily ...
Central America and the Caribbean
(2016)
This chapter provides summaries of the 2015 temperature and precipitation conditions across seven broad regions: North America, Central America and the Caribbean, South America, Africa, Europe, Asia, and Oceania. In most ...
Dynamical downscaling of historical climate over CORDEX Central America domain with a regionally coupled atmosphere–ocean model
(2018-08)
The climate in Mexico and Central America is influenced by the Pacific and the Atlantic oceanic basins and atmospheric conditions over continental North and South America. These factors and important ocean–atmosphere coupled ...
Projected climate change impacts on tropical life zones in Costa Rica. Progress in Physical Geography: Earth and Environment
(2021)
Efforts to protect tropical ecosystems aim at implementing biological corridors across the national territory of Costa Rica. However, potential near-future climate change challenges the effectiveness of such conservation ...
