The integration of field measurements and satellite observations to determine river solid loads in poorly monitored basins
(IRD France Nord, 2012-06)
The use of satellite imagery to assess river sediment discharge is discussed in the context of poorly monitored basins. For more than three decades, the Peruvian hydrological service SENAMHI has been maintaining several ...

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 ...

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 ...

Assessing hydrological changes in a regulated river system over the last 90 years in Rimac Basin (Peru)
(Springer-Verlag Wien, 2018-04)
Hydrological changes were assessed considering possible changes in precipitation and regulation or hydraulic diversion projects developed in the basin since 1960s in terms of improving water supply of the Rimac River, which ...

Can artificial neural networks estimate potential evapotranspiration in Peruvian highlands?
( John Wiley and Sons , 2019-09-26)
Evapotranspiration (ETo) is one of the most important variables of the water cycle when water requirements for irrigation, water resource planning or hydrological applications are analyzed. In this context, models based ...
North Tropical Atlantic influence on western Amazon fire season variability
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2011-06)
The prevailing wet climate in the western Amazon is not favorable to the natural occurrence of fires. Nevertheless, the current process of clearing of humid forests for agriculture and cattle ranching has increased 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 ...

Multiregional satellite precipitation products evaluation over complex terrain
(American Meteorological Society, 2016-06)
An extensive evaluation of nine global-scale high-resolution satellite-based rainfall (SBR) products is performed using a minimum of 6 years (within the period of 2000-13) of reference rainfall data derived from rain gauge ...

Observed and projected hydroclimate changes in the Andes
(Frontiers, 2020-03-17)
The Andes is the most biodiverse region across the globe. In addition, some of the largest urban areas in South America are located within this region. Therefore, ecosystems and human population are affected by hydroclimate ...

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 ...
