Snowpack Variations in the Central Andes of Argentina and Chile, 1951–2005: Large-Scale Atmospheric Influences and Implications for Water Resources in the Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The snowpack in the central Andes (30°?37°S) is the primary source for streamflow in central Chile and central-western Argentina, but few published studies are available on snowpack variability in the region. This paper ...
Ancient Austrocedrus Tree-Ring Chronologies Used to Reconstruct Central Chile Precipitation Variability from a.d. 1200 to 2000
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An expanded network of moisture-sensitive tree-ring chronologies has been developed for central Chile from long-lived cypress trees in the Andean Cordillera. A regional ring width chronology of cypress sites has been used ...
Spatio-temporal variations in hydroclimate across the Mediterranean Andes (30°-37°S) since the early 20th century
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n the Mediterranean Andes (MA; 30°S?37°S), the main rivers are largely fed by melting snowpack and provide fresh water to around 10 million people on both sides of the Cordillera. Water resources in the MA are under pressure ...
