Tracing water sources and fluxes in a dynamic tropical environment from observations to modeling
(Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020-11-06)
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 ...
Hydrogeochemical baseline in a human altered landscape of the Central Pacific coast of Costa Rica
(Springer Nature, 2020)
Abstract Groundwater pollution in tropical and human-altered coastal landscapes is receiving novel
attention due to decreasing in annual recharge as a consequence of recurrent droughts and overexploitation, whereby saline ...
Evaluating watershed health in Costa Rican national parks and protected areas
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2020-08-11)
Although the biodiversity of Costa Rican national parks, forests, and wetlands has been extensively surveyed, there has not
been a watershed assessment that refects their baseline water quality. Undoubtedly, the infux of ...
Headwaters drive streamflow and lowland tracer export in a large-scale humid tropical catchment
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 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 ...
Modelling non-stationary water ages in a tropical rainforest: A preliminary spatially distributed assessment
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 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 ...
