Suarez, Wilson; Cerna, Marcos; Ordóñez Gálvez, Juan Julio; Frey, Holger; Giráldez, Claudia; Huggel, Christian
(American Geophysical Union, 2013)Acceso abiertoThe Urubamba and Vilcabamba mountain ranges are two geological structures belonging to the Andes in the southern part of Peru, which is located in the tropical region. These mountain ranges are especially located within ... -
On the future of the water resources from glacier melting in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru
Bernard, Pouyaud; Marco, Zapata; Yerren, Jorge; Gomez, Jesus; Gabriela, Rosas; Suarez, Wilson
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2005)Acceso abiertoThe hydrological data (since 1953) of the Llanganuco basin (87.0 km2, 39% glacierized) show an increase of the glacial melting during the last quarter of the 20th century. These results were supplemented (since the end of ... -
Present and future water resources supply and demand in the Central Andes of Peru: a comprehensive review with focus on the Cordillera Vilcanota
Drenkhan, Fabian; Huggel, Christian; Salzmann, Nadine; Giráldez, Claudia; Suarez, Wilson; Rohrer, Mario; Molina, Edwin; Montoya, Nilton; Miñan, Fiorella
(American Geophysical Union, 2014)Acceso abiertoGlaciers have been an important element of Andean societies and livelihoods as direct freshwater supply for agriculture irrigation, hydropower generation and mining activities. Peru’s mainly remotely living population in ... -
The projected precipitation reduction over the Central Andes may severely affect Peruvian glaciers and hydropower production
Kronenberg, M.; Schauwecker, S.; Huggel, C.; Salzmann, N.; Drenkhan, Fabian; Frey, H.; Giraáldez, C.; Gurgiser, W.; Kaser, G.; Juen, I.; Suarez, Wilson; Hernaández, J.G.; Sanmartín, J.F.; Ayros, E.; Perry, B.; Rohrer, M.
(Elsevier, 2016-11-29)Acceso abiertoWater from glaciers is crucial for the Peruvian hydropower production. Hence, we investigate the glacier-atmosphere and climate interactions in the Cordillera Vilcanota, considering scenarios of significant precipitation ... -
Quantifying the controls of Peruvian glacier response to climate
Fyffe, Catriona L.; Potter, Emily; Fugger, S.; Orr, Andrew; Fatichi, Simone; Medina, Katy; Hellström, Robert Å.; Shaw, Thomas E.; Bernat, Maud; Llacza Rodríguez, Alan; Jácome Vergaray, Gerardo; Aubry-Wake, Caroline; Gurgiser, Wolfgang; Perry, L. Baker; Suarez, Wilson; Quincey, Duncan J.; Loarte, Edwin; Pellicciotti, Francesca
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-04)Acceso abiertoPeruvian glaciers are important contributors to dry season runoff for agriculture and hydropower, but they are at risk of disappearing due to climate warming. Their energy balance and ablation characteristics have previously ... -
Relevance of future snowfall level height in the Peruvian Andes for glacier loss in the 21st century under different emission scenarios
Schauwecker, Simone; Kronenberg, Marlene; Rohrer, Mario; Huggel, Christian; Endries, Jason; Montoya, Nilton; Neukom, Raphael; Perry, Baker; Salzmann, Nadine; Schwarb, Manfred; Suarez, Wilson
(American Geophysical Union, 2017)Acceso abiertoIn many regions of Peru, the competition for limited hydrological resources already represents a large risk for conflicts. In this context, and within the circumstances of climate change, there is a great interest in ... -
Surface energy and mass balance modeling of a Peruvian tropical glacier
Torres, C.; Arigony, J.; Arndt, A.; Tobias, S.; Gurgiser, W.; Suarez, Wilson; Santillan, N.; Maier, É.
(American Geophysical Union, 2019-12)Acceso abiertoGlaciers in Peruvian Andes play an important role for local hydrology. To quantify the availability of glacier meltwater in a climate change scenario, surface energy (SEB) and mass balance (MB) models are required. However, ... -
