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 ...
Ecosystem-based adaptation to climate change: what role for policy-makers, society and scientists?
(2009)
In developing countries where economies and livelihoods depend largely on
ecosystem services, policies for adaptation to climate change should take into account the
role of these services in increasing the resilience of ...
On the ability of a global atmospheric inversion to constrain variations of CO2 fluxes over Amazonia
(2015)
The exchanges of carbon, water and energy between
the atmosphere and the Amazon basin have global implications
for the current and future climate. Here, the global
atmospheric inversion system of the Monitoring of ...
A methodological proposal for the evaluation of farmer's adaptation to climate variability, mainly due to drought in watersheds in Central America
(2008)
The current study shows the process and the results of a methodology proposed to contribute with the issue of how to evaluate the adaptation to climate variability and future climate change. The proposed methodology consists ...
¿Qué aporta el conocimiento local para re-direccionar la investigación sobre el efecto de las raíces en reducción de erosión, secuestro de carbono y redistribución de agua en el suelo? : estudio de caso
(2014)
Incluir la lógica de los productores en la investigación y transferencia de conocimientos es crucial para la adopción de buenas prácticas de manejo del agroecosistema. Para conocer la percepción de los productores sobre ...
Modelling Potential Equilibrium States of Vegetation and Terrestrial Water Cycle of Mesoamerica under Climate Change Scenarios
(2012)
The likelihood and magnitude of the impacts of climate change on potential vegetation and the water cycle
in Mesoamerica is evaluated. Mesoamerica is a global biodiversity hotspot with highly diverse topographic
and ...
