Tracer hydrology of the data-scarce and heterogeneous Central American Isthmus
(2020)
Numerous socio-economic activities depend on the seasonal rainfall and groundwater recharge cycle across the Central American Isthmus. Population growth and unregulated land use changes resulted in extensive surface water ...
Spatially distributed tracer‐aided modelling to explore water and isotope transport, storage and mixing in a pristine, humid tropical catchment
(2018)
Rapidly transforming headwater catchments in the humid tropics provide important
resources for drinking water, irrigation, hydropower, and ecosystem connectivity.
However, such resources for downstream use remain unstudied. ...
The residence time of water vapour in the atmosphere
(2021-07-13)
Atmospheric water vapour residence time (WVRT) is an essential indicator of how atmospheric dynamics and thermodynamics mediate hydrological cycle responses to climate change. WVRT is also important in estimating moisture ...
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 ...
La Corriente en Chorro del Caribe: Observaciones, modelado multifísica, interacciones multiescala e impacto regional
(2018-06)
El tema central de la propuesta es el estudio de la Corriente en Chorro del Caribe (CLLJ por sus siglas en inglés). El CLLJ es uno de los mecanismos físicos más importantes para entender el clima, la variabilidad climática ...
Cambios futuros de precipitación y temperatura sobre América Central y el Caribe utilizando proyecciones climáticas de reducción de escala estadística
(2018-01)
En la presente investigación se muestra mediante el uso del conjunto de proyecciones climáticas de reducción de escala estadística pertenecientes al NEX-GDDP, los cambios a largo plazo en precipitación y temperatura que ...
Member and Bayesian mixing models consistently indicate near‐surface flowpath dominance in a pristine humid tropical rainforest
(2021)
The impacts of forest conversion on runoff generation in the tropics have received much interest, but scientific progress is still hampered by challenging fieldwork conditions and limited knowledge about runoff mechanisms. ...
The MILAN campaign: Studying diel light effects on the air-sea interface
(2019)
The sea-surface microlayer (SML) at the air-sea interface is < 1 mm deep but it is physically, chemically and biologically distinct from the underlying water and the atmosphere above. Wind-driven turbulence and solar ...
Modelling non‐stationary water ages in a tropical rainforest: A preliminary spatially distributed assessment
(2020)
Pristine tropical forests play a critical role in regional and global climate systems. For a better understanding of the eco-hydrology of tropical “evergreen” vegetation, it is essential to know the partitioning of water ...
Hyperspectral reflectance measurements from UAS under intermittent clouds: Correcting irradiance measurements for sensor tilt
(2021)
One great advantage of optical hyperspectral remote sensing from unmanned aerial systems (UAS) compared to satellite missions is the possibility to fly and collect data below clouds. The most typical scenario is flying ...
