      Esquivel-Hernández, Germain; Sanchez-Murillo, Ricardo; Birkel, Christian; Ball, Jan (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 ...
    • Exploring the acid neutralizing effect in rainwater collected at a tropical urban area: Central Valley, Costa Rica 

      Esquivel-Hernández, Germain; Sanchez-Murillo, Ricardo; Villalobos Córdoba, Diego; Monteiro, Lucilena Rebelo; Villalobos Forbes, Mario; Sánchez-Gutiérrez, Rolando; Cotrim, Marycel; Matiatos, Ioannis (Elsevier (Países Bajos), 2023)
      We report on the chemical and the carbon isotopic composition of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) of rainwater collected between May and October 2020 in the Central Valley, Costa Rica. Precipitation samples were ...
    • Hydrogeological responses in tropical mountainous springs 

      Salas-Navarro, Jessica; Sanchez-Murillo, Ricardo; Esquivel-Hernández, Germain; Corrales Salazar, José Leonardo (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2018)
      This study presents a hydrogeochemical analysis of spring responses (2013–2017) in the tropical mountainous region of the Central Valley of Costa Rica. The isotopic distribution of δ18O and δ2 H in rainfall resulted ...
