Mapping seasonal and annual extreme precipitation over the Peruvian Andes
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2018-12)
Seasonal and annual extreme precipitation over the Peruvian Andes have been mapped for the first time. Maps were developed using the most complete, quality-controlled and homogenous daily precipitation records in Peru from ...

Summertime precipitation deficits in the southern Peruvian highlands since 1964
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2019-03)
Precipitation deficits remain a concern to the rural population in the southern Peruvian highlands and knowledge about their occurrence is lacking because of scarce data availability. For mountainous regions with sparse ...

Control of seasonal and inter-annual rainfall distribution on the Strontium-Neodymium isotopic compositions of suspended particulate matter and implications for tracing ENSO events in the Pacific coast (Tumbes basin, Peru)
(Institut de recherche pour le développement-IRD, 2020-01)
The geochemistry of riverine sediments exported to the oceans is important for paleo-hydro-climatic reconstruction. However, climate reconstruction requires a good understanding of the relationship between geochemistry and ...

Water resources and climate change impact modelling on a daily time scale in the Peruvian Andes
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2014-11)
Estimating water resources is important for adequate water management in the future, but suitable data are often scarce. We estimated water resources in the Vilcanota basin (Peru) for the 1998–2009 period with the ...

Modelling the water balance in the glacierized Parón Lake basin (White Cordillera, Peru)
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)
The White Cordillera (northern Peru), with a glacial surface of 631 km2, is the largest glacierized mountain range in the Tropics. Due to the lack of physical data from most of its sub-basins, it is difficult to build a ...

Hydrological and depositional processes associated with recent glacier recession in Yanamarey catchment, Cordillera Blanca (Peru)
(Elsevier B.V., 2017-02)
In this study, we investigate changes in the glaciated surface and the formation of lakes in the headwater of the Querococha watershed in Cordillera Blanca (Peru) using 24 Landsat images from 1975 to 2014. Information of ...
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 ...

Impacts of different ENSO flavors and tropical Pacific convection variability (ITCZ, SPCZ) on austral summer rainfall in South America, with a focus on Peru
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2018-01)
El Niño in the eastern and central Pacific has different impacts on the rainfall of South America, and the atmospheric pathways through the South Pacific Convergence Zone (SPCZ) and Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) ...

Assessment of climate change impacts on the hydrology of the Peruvian Amazon-Andes basin
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-11)
In this article, we propose an investigation of the modifications of the hydrological response of two Peruvian Amazonas-Andes basins in relationship with the modifications of the precipitation and evapotranspiration rates ...
