Climate change threatens water security in Southern Ecuador. We aim to develop climate and hydrological projections and adaptation strategies by involving academia, citizens and policymakers.
A downscaling journey across the Andes: A systematic review from coarse regional models to state-of-the-art machine learning methods and beyond.
We have come a long way in the downscaling pathway. It might be time to consolidate the community, integrate as a region and (…) improve the resilience of our mountainous countries.
The Lost Mountain Heritage: Investigating Environmental Stewardship in Mountaineer’s Narratives Trough Archival and Visual Ethnography
Scrutinizing environmental stewardship among early and young generation of mountaineers, historical investigation from 1922-2022
Measuring Annual Fluctuations in Water Budget of Beas River Basin, Western Himalaya
It was observed that the water balance in the Upper basin consistently remains positive throughout the year, while the Lower basin shows a positive water balance in the months of July and August only.
Convection-permitting simulation of MCSs over the Tibetan Plateau and downstreams: Insights from the first ensemble run of ‘WY2020’ at K-Scale in CORDEX-FPS-CPTP
This talk will report the performance and key biases of the first ensemble run of K-scale WRF simulation in simulating MCS precipitation characteristics over the Tibetan Plateau and downstreams.
A youth-based glacio-hydrological monitoring program in Tongait KakKasuangita SilakKijapvinga (Torngat Mountains National Park), Nunatsiavut, Labrador, Canada
We report on a youth-based participatory glacio-hydrological research program that aims to establish mass balance, meteorological, and watershed monitoring for a glacier in the Torngat Mountains.
Future Glacier and Snow Hydrology of Headwater Basins in the Canadian Rockies Hydrological Observatory using Dynamically Downscaled Climate Model Forcing
End of century dynamically downscaled modelling in Canadian Rockies headwaters basins shows divergent responses for non-glacier and deglaciated basins. Snow dominated basins show resilience.
Vegetation changes after 15 yrs. along an elevational gradient in the Andes of central Chile
After 15 years, the number of native plants species in the lower part of an elevational gradient in the Andes of central Chile decreased whilst the number of exotics increased
