Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid decline of snow and ice in the tropical Andes – Impacts, uncertainties and challenges ahead
Mathias Vuille,Mark Carey,Christian Huggel,Wouter Buytaert,Antoine Rabatel,Dean Jacobsen,Alvaro Soruco,Marcos Villacís,Christian Yarleque,Oliver Elison Timm,Thomas Condom,Nadine Salzmann,Nadine Salzmann,Jean-Emmanuel Sicart +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review on the need for adaptation as well as the challenges and constraints many adaptation projects are faced with, and lays out future directions where opportunities exist to develop successful, culturally acceptable and sustainable adaptation strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving daily rainfall estimation from NDVI using a wavelet transform
TL;DR: A new approach to reconstruct daily rainfall from rain gauge data and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) based on the fact that both signals are periodic and proportional improves spatial reconstruction of rainfall.
Journal ArticleDOI
TRMM rainfall correction over the Andean Plateau using wavelet multi-resolution analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, wavelet-based correction of TRMM 3B42 on average improved several metrics: entropy difference (1545−132), determination coefficient (007−092), bias (068−101), and entropy difference.
Journal ArticleDOI
Groundwater Buffers Decreasing Glacier Melt in an Andean Watershed—But Not Forever
Lauren D. Somers,Lauren D. Somers,Jeffrey M. McKenzie,Bryan G. Mark,Pablo Lagos,Gene Hua Crystal Ng,Andrew D. Wickert,Christian Yarleque,Michel Baraer,Yamina Silva +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used extensive field measurements and computer modeling of the Shullcas Watershed in the Peruvian Andes to determine the current and future role of groundwater in the face of climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Projections of the future disappearance of the Quelccaya Ice Cap in the Central Andes.
Christian Yarleque,Mathias Vuille,Douglas R. Hardy,Oliver Elison Timm,Jorge De la Cruz,Hugo Ramos,Antoine Rabatel +6 more
TL;DR: It is corroborated that elevation-dependent warming (EDW) contributes significantly to the enhanced warming over the QIC, and that EDW at Quelccaya depends on the rate of anthropogenic forcing.
