Trends in rainfall and temperature in the Peruvian Amazon-Andes basin over the last 40years (1965-2007)
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2013-09)
The hydroclimatology of the Peruvian Amazon-Andes basin (PAB) which surface corresponding to 7% of the Amazon basin is still poorly documented. We propose here an extended and original analysis of the temporal evolution ...

The projected precipitation reduction over the Central Andes may severely affect Peruvian glaciers and hydropower production
(Elsevier, 2016-11-29)
Water 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 ...

Change in strong Eastern Pacific El Niño events dynamics in the warming climate
(Springer, 2020)
While there is evidence that ENSO activity will increase in association with the increased vertical stratification due to global warming, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here we investigate this issue using the ...

The 2017 coastal El Niño
(American Meteorological Society, 2018-08)
The original concept of El Niño consisted of anomalously high sea surface temperature and heavy rainfall along the arid
northern coast of Peru (Carranza 1891; Carrillo 1893). The concept evolved into the El Niño–Southern ...
