Characterization of surface water isotope spatial patterns of Scotland
(Elsevier B.V., 2018-07-24)
The extended National Waters Inventory of Scotland (NWIS) monitoring network in combination with an extensive, supplementary low flow sampling campaign was used to create isoscapes of surface water for management purposes ...
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 ...
DOC Transport and Export in a Dynamic Tropical Catchment
(American Geophysical Union, 2019)
Abstract Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) transport and export from headwater forests into freshwaters in highly dynamic tropical catchments are still understudied. Here we present a DOC analysis (2017) in a
pristine and ...
Insight into the stable isotopic composition of glacial lakes in a tropical alpine ecosystem: Chirripó, Costa Rica
(Wiley & Sons, 2018)
Tropical high‐elevation lakes are considered sentinels of global climate change. This work characterizes the hydrological conditions of tropical alpine glacial lakes located in the highlands of Chirripó, Costa Rica, using ...
Moisture transport and seasonal variations in the stable isotopic composition of rainfall in Central American and Andean Páramo during El Niño conditions (2015–2016)
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2019)
High‐elevation tropical grassland systems, called Páramo, provide essential ecosystem services such as water storage and supply for surrounding and lowland areas.
Páramo systems are threatened by climate and land use ...
Deciphering key processes controlling rainfall isotopic variability during extreme tropical cyclones
(2019-09)
The Mesoamerican and Caribbean (MAC) region is characterized by tropical cyclones (TCs), strong El Niño-Southern Oscillation events, and climate variability that bring unique hazards to socio-ecological systems. Here we ...
Climate And Water Conflicts Coevolution From Tropical Development And Hydro-Climatic Perspectives: A Case Study Of Costa Rica
(American water resources Association, 2018)
Costa Rica is a nation with a vast wealth of water resources; however, recently the country has
faced water conflicts (WC) due to social, economic, legal, and political impediments in response to limited water
availability ...
Key drivers controlling stable isotope variations in daily precipitation of Costa Rica: Caribbean Sea versus Eastern Pacific Ocean moisture sources
(Elsevier, 2016)
Costa Rica is located on the Central American Isthmus, which receives moisture inputs directly from the Caribbean Sea and the Eastern Pacific Ocean. This location includes unique mountainous and lowland microclimates, but ...
