Seasonal differences in trace metal concentrations in the major rivers of the hyper-arid southwestern Andes basins of Peru
(Elsevier, 2023-10)
The southern rivers of Peru originate in the Andes Mountains and flow in a southwestern direction to the Pacific Ocean through one of the most hyper-arid regions of the world. During each sub-equatorial summer from December ...

Assessing near real-time satellite precipitation products for flood simulations at sub-daily scales in a sparsely gauged watershed in Peruvian andes
(MDPI AG, 2021-02-23)
This study investigates the applicability of Satellite Precipitation Products (SPPs) in near real-time for the simulation of sub-daily runoff in the Vilcanota River basin, located in the southeastern Andes of Peru. The ...

Hydrological Response Assessment of Land Cover Change in a Peruvian Amazonian Basin Impacted by Deforestation Using the SWAT Model
(MDPI, 2024)
The watershed hydrologic conditions in the Madre de Dios (MDD) Basin in the Peruvian Amazon have been irreversibly impacted by deforestation and changes in land cover. These changes have also had detrimental effects on the ...

Attribution of Amazon floods to modes of climate variability: A review
(John Wiley & Sons, 2020-08)
Anomalous conditions in the oceans and atmosphere have the potential to beused to enhance the predictability of flood events, enabling earlier warnings toreduce risk. In the Amazon basin, extreme flooding is consistently ...

Towards a more consistent eco-hydrological modelling through multi-objective calibration: a case study in the Andean Vilcanota River basin, Peru
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2020)
Most hydrological studies rely on a model calibrated using discharge alone. However, judging the model reliability based on such calibration is problematic, as it does not guarantee the correct representation of internal ...

Assessment of bottom-up satellite precipitation products on river streamflow estimations in the Peruvian Pacific drainage
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute - MDPI, 2023)
In regions with limited precipitation information, like Peru, many studies rely on precipitation data derived from satellite products (SPP) and model reanalysis. These products provide near-real-time information and offer ...
Characteristics of Precipitation and Mesoscale Convective Systems Over the Peruvian Central Andes in Multi 5-Year Convection-Permitting Simulations
(American Geophysical Union, 2024)
Using the Weather Research and Forecasting model with two planetary boundary layer schemes, ACM2 and MYNN, convection-permitting model (CPM) regional climate simulations were conducted for a 6-year period, including a ...
Impacts of LULC and climate change on runoff and sediment production for the Puyango-Tumbes basin (Ecuador-Peru)
(Frontiers', 2024)
Climate change will cause alterations in the hydrological cycle, a topic of great relevance to the scientific community due to its impacts on water resources. Investigating changes in hydrological characteristics at the ...

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 ...
