Tracing Water Sources and Fluxes in a Dynamic Tropical Environment: From Observations to Modeling
(2020)
Tropical regions cover approximately 36% of the Earth’s landmass. These regions are home to 40% of the world’s population, which is projected to increase to over 50% by 2030 under a remarkable climate variability scenario ...
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 ...
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. ...
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 ...
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 ...
Headwaters drive streamflow and lowland tracer export in a large‐scale humid tropical catchment
(2020)
Headwaters are generally assumed to contribute the majority of water to downstream users, but how much water, of what quality and where it is generated are rarely known in the humid tropics. Here, using monthly monitoring ...
