Climatology-based regional modelling of potential vegetation and average annual long-term runoff for Mesoamerica
(2010)
Mean annual cycles of runoff, evapotranspiration,
leaf area index (LAI) and potential vegetation were
modelled for Mesoamerica using the SVAT model MAPSS
with different climatology datasets. We calibrated and validated
the ...
Synergies and trade-offs between ecosystem services in Costa Rica
