Projected increases in the annual flood pulse of the Western Amazon
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2016-01)
The impact of a changing climate on the Amazon basin is a subject of intensive research because of its rich biodiversity and the significant role of rainforests in carbon cycling. Climate change has also a direct hydrological ...

A critical assessment of the JULES land surface model hydrology for humid tropical environments
(Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (HESS), 2013-01)
Global land surface models (LSMs) such as the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES) are originally developed to provide surface boundary conditions for climate models. They are increasingly used for hydrological ...

A comparative analysis of TRMM-rain gauge data merging techniques at the daily time scale for distributed rainfall-runoff modeling applications
(American Meteorological Society, 2015-01)
This study compares two nonparametric rainfall data merging methods-the mean bias correction and double-kernel smoothing-with two geostatistical methods-kriging with external drift and Bayesian combination-for optimizing ...

High-resolution satellite-gauge merged precipitation climatologies of the tropical Andes
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-02-09)
Satellite precipitation products are becoming increasingly useful to complement rain gauge networks in regions where these are too sparse to capture spatial precipitation patterns, such as in the Tropical Andes. The Tropical ...
