Groundwater and surface water connectivity within the recharge area of Guarani aquifer system during El Niño 2014–2016
(Wiley & Sons, 2018)
Recharge areas of the Guarani Aquifer System (GAS) are particularly sensitive and vulnerable
to climate variability; therefore, the understanding of infiltration mechanisms for aquifer recharge and surface run‐off generation ...
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 ...
Preface to Stable isotopes in hydrological studies in the tropics: ecohydrological perspectives in a changing climate
(Wiley & Sons, 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 ...
Key hydrological processes in the Del Azul Creek basin, sub-humid Pampean Plain
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-02)
Groundwater plays an important role in the economic development of the Chaco-Pampean Plain (Argentina), where industry, agriculture and cattle farming are the main economic activities. The 66% of the country's population ...
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 ...
Stable isotopes reveal groundwater to river connectivity in a mesoscale subtropical watershed
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2021)
The Corumbataí River basin (São Paulo, Brazil) has a critical situation regarding water availability due to the intensive use to support agriculture and urbanization, requiring scientific information to face water demand. ...
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 ...
Isotopic variability (δ18O, δ2 H and d-excess) during rainfall events of the north American monsoon across the Sonora River Basin, Mexico
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
The economic activities of the Sonora strongly depend on groundwater extraction, which is generally of recent
meteoric origin. Understanding the hydrological functioning in this semi-arid region, located in northwestern
Mexico, ...
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 ...
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 ...
