The Effect of COVID-19 Lockdowns on the Air Pollution of Urban Areas of Central and Southern Chile
(AAGR Aerosol and Air Quality Research, 2021)
We present the effects of the confinement and physical distancing policies applied during the COVID-19 pandemic on the concentrations of PM10, PM2.5, NO, NO2 and O3 in 16 cities in central and southern Chile. The period ...

A multi-objective approach to select hydrological models and constrain structural uncertainties for climate impact assessments
(John Wiley and Sons, 2021-12)
The assessment of climate change impacts on water resources and flood risk is typically underpinned by hydrological models calibrated and selected based on observed streamflow records. Yet, changes in climate are rarely ...
Trends and space–time patterns of near-surface temperatures on Maxwell Bay, King George Island, Antarctica
(Royal Meteorological Society, 2022-04)
There is growing interest in the international scientific community in characterizing climate variability in Antarctica because of the continent's fundamental role in regulating the world's climate. Researchers have ...
Anticipation Mechanism for Cold Wave: Forecast Based Financing a Case Study in the Peruvian Andes
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021-11)
In June 2018, the Peruvian provinces of Arequipa and Puno in the southern Andean region were affected by heavy snowfall, which caused severe damage to people and livelihoods in several communities. Using the Forecast-based ...

The challenge of unprecedented floods and droughts in risk management
(Springer, 2022-08-03)
Risk management has reduced vulnerability to floods and droughts globally1,2, yet their impacts are still increasing3. An improved understanding of the causes of changing impacts is therefore needed, but has been hampered ...

Construction of a daily streamflow dataset for Peru using a similarity-based regionalization approach and a hybrid hydrological modeling framework
(Elsevier, 2023)
This paper aims to develop a national hydrological model using physiographic and climatic characteristics to identify donor and receptor sub-catchments (sub-zones). Therefore, we use the hydrometeorological PISCO dataset ...
