Análisis de los conglomerados de precipitación y sus cambios estacionales sobre América Central para el período 1976-2015
Analysis of precipitation clusters and their seasonal changes over Central America for the 1976-2015 period
(2021-07-08)
La ubicación geográfica de América Central juega un papel importante en la descripción de la variabilidad climática de la región. Está rodeada por dos grandes masas de agua, el Pacífico Tropical del Este en el lado occidental ...
Efecto del estrés calórico sobre la producción de ganado lechero en Costa Rica
Heat stress effect on dairy cattle production in Costa Rica
(2019-09)
Introducción. La producción lechera en zonas tropicales se caracteriza por una alta dependencia del recurso forrajero, lo que la hace sensible a las variables climáticas, de las cuales existe información limitada sobre su ...
Variaciones de la Temperatura y el Viento en Costa Rica Durante el Eclipse Total de Sol del 11 de julio de 1991
(San José, CR: Editorial de la Universidad de Costa Rica, 1992)
Se analizan y discuten las mediciones de la temperatura y el viento, en la superficie y la atmosfera libre, realizadas en Costa Rica durante el eclipse total de sol del 11 de junio de 1991. Se demuestra cómo la temperatura ...
Some physical and socio-economic aspects of climate change in Central America
(Progress in Physical Geography: pp. 1-21, 2012-06)
The relative magnitude of precipitation and temperature changes obtained from 21st-century climate change projections from general circulation models (GCMs) is compared to the changes in a selection of socioeconomic ...
Associations of decadal to multidecadal sea-surface temperature variability with Upper Colorado River flow
(2007-02)
The relations of decadal to multidecadal (D2M) variability in global sea-surface temperatures (SSTs)
with D2M variability in the flow of the Upper Colorado River Basin (UCRB) are examined for the years 1906-
2003. Results ...
Central America [in State of the Climate in 2016]
(2017)
Central America experienced anomalies in temperature and precipitation in 2016. Mean temperatures were higher than average, particularly in Puerto Barrios, Choluteca, and San José. The increase in mean temperatures was due ...
Structure and Detectability of Trends in Hydrological Measures over the Western United States
(2009-08)
This study examines the geographic structure of observed trends in key hydrologically relevant variables across the western United States at ⅛° spatial resolution during the period 1950–99. Geographical regions, latitude ...
Can climate variability information constrain a hydrological model for an ungauged Costa Rican catchment?
(2018)
Long‐term hydrological data are key to understanding catchment behaviour and for decision making within water management and planning. Given the lack of observed data in many regions worldwide, such as Central America, ...
Precursors of quasi-decadal dry-spells in the Central America Dry Corridor
(2019)
Although the hydric stress in Central America is generally low, there is a region relatively drier and prone to drought known as the Central America Dry Corridor (CADC). The area of interest is located mainly in the Pacific ...
Detection and Attribution of Streamflow Timing Changes to Climate Change in the Western United States
(2009-07)
This article applies formal detection and attribution techniques to investigate the nature of observed shifts in the timing of streamflow in the western United States. Previous studies have shown that the snow hydrology ...
