Recent progress on the sources of continental precipitation as revealed by moisture transport analysis
(2020)
The assessment of sources of moisture is key to the understanding of the hydrological cycle at different time scales, because it enables the establishment of source-sink relationships and the identification of the main ...
Smiling in the rain: Seven reasons to be positive about uncertainty in hydrological modelling
(Processes Hydrological Processes Vol. 27(7): 1117–1122, 2012-03-30)
Over 20 years ago, the notion of ‘positive uncertainty’ was introduced in the field of psychology (Gelatt, 1989). This was coincident to some developments in the hydrological sciences (e.g. Beven and Binley, 1992; Grayson ...
The role of lowlevel circulation on water vapour transport to central and northern South America: Insights from a 2D Lagrangian approach
(2020)
The potential role of low-level circulation on the transport of atmospheric
moisture towards Central America and northern South America is studied
with the Dynamical Recycling Model (DRM) for the period 1981–2015. The
net ...
Errores en la medición de la temperatura del aire en una caseta meteorológica tipo Stevenson
(Cienc. Tec. 7 (1): 207-222,1983, 1983)
The temperature of the air inside a double louvered meteorological screen relative to the temperature of the air outside the screen was considered. differences of the order of ±O.6 °C were recorded, due apparently to lack ...
Variability of Climate and Water Resources in Central America
(2012-10-23)
Disasters induced by natural phenomena have affected the society since the early days. Extreme hydro meteorological events are perhaps one of the most common causes of nature-induced disasters. In Central
America in ...
Análisis de las Anomalías en el inicio y el término de la estación lluviosa en Centroamérica y su relación con los océanos Pacífico y Atlántico Tropical
(1999)
It is estimated the star, end and duration of the rainy season for 37 gauge stations located mainly on the Pacific Slope in Central America. The relation of these aspects with the sea surface temperature of the Tropical ...

(2015-06)
Este trabajo forma parte de una seria de investigaciones en perspectiva histórica-científica el impacto de los ciclones tropicales que han afectado a América Central, el Golfo de México y las Islas del Caribe. El interés ...
Balanced dynamics of deep and shallow Hadley circulations in the tropics
(Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems 6(3): 777-804, 2014-05-06)
This paper examines the dynamics of large-scale overturning circulations in the tropical atmosphere using an idealized zonally symmetric model on the equatorial b-plane. Under certain simplifications of its coefficients, ...
Ocean Evaporation and Precipitation
(2012)
In view of the threat of global climate change , the proper understanding of the intensity of the hydrological cycle and of its development over time is one of the most important challenges of the century, at least in the ...
Caracterización de manglares de Centroamérica con sensores remotos
(2001)
Satellite images were used to study the mangrove distribution patterns in two different climatic regions of
Central America: Gulf of Fonseca in Honduras-El Salvador and Sierpe-Térraba in Costa Rica. The Gulf of Fonseca
has ...
