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 ...
End member and Bayesian mixing models consistently indicate near-surface flowpath dominance in a pristine humid tropical rainforest
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 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. ...
A preliminary isotope-based evapotranspiration partitioningapproach for tropical Costa Rica
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2021-07)
Spatially and seasonally distributed information on transpiration (T) fluxes is limited in the tropics. Here, we applied a coupled isotope mass balance model to separate water fluxes of T and evapotranspiration (ET) from ...
Isotope hydrology of a tropical coffee agroforestry watershed: Seasonal and event-based analyses
(Wiley & Sons, 2018)
Stable isotope variations are extremely useful for flow partitioning within the
hydrologic cycle but remain poorly understood throughout the tropics, particularly in
watersheds with rapidly infiltrating soils, such as ...
Identifying groundwater recharge connections in the Moscow (USA) sub-basin using isotopic tracers and a soil moisture routing model
(Springer, 2016)
Globally, aquifers are suffering from large abstrac tions resulting in groundwater level declines. These declines can be caused by excessive abstraction for drinking water, irrigation purposes or industrial use. Basaltic ...
Análisis de los accidentes químico-tecnológicos presentados en la gran área metropolitana durante el período de 1998-2005
(Universidad Nacional (Costa Rica), 2010)
Durante el periodo 1998-2005, la unidad de Materiales Peligrosos del Instituto Nacional de Seguros (MATPEL) atendió 329 emergencias químico-tecnológicas en Costa Rica, de las cuales 255 ocurrieron en la Gran Área Metropolitana ...
Medicinal Water? The occurrence and fate of pharmaceuticals in aquatic environments A short communication
(Universidad Nacional (Costa Rica), 2012)
Although very little is known about the transport, fate and toxic effects of medical compounds in aquatic environments, the presence of these compounds in potable water sources can no longer be overlooked. We can ...
Amenazas químico-tecnológicas en la Gran Área Metropolitana de Costa Rica
(Universidad Nacional (Costa Rica), 2013)
Los accidentes químico-tecnológicos son eventos inesperados que con llevan la liberación no controlada de una o más sustancias químicas con graves repercusiones en la salud humana y, en ocasiones, impactos irreversibles ...
Isotopic composition in precipitation and groundwater in the northern mountainous region of the Central Valley of Costa Rica
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
The linkage between precipitation and recharge is still poorlyunderstood in the Central America region. This study focuses onstable isotopic composition in precipitation and groundwater in the northern mountainous region ...
Tracking the water fingerprints of Cocos Island: A stable isotope analysis of precipitation, surface water, and groundwater
(Revista de Biología Tropical, 2016)
The use of stable isotopes of water, both δ2H and δ18O has provided novel insights in hydrological studies, ecological applications, understanding climate variability, and reconstructing paleoclimate. However, information ...
