René D. Garreaud,Camila Alvarez-Garreton,Jonathan Barichivich,Juan Pablo Boisier,Duncan A. Christie,Mauricio Galleguillos,Carlos LeQuesne,James McPhee,Mauricio Zambrano-Bigiarini +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the nature and biophysical impacts of the megadrought in central Chile and reported some of the measures taken by the central government to relieve the effects and the public perception of this event.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate change impacts on the hydrology of a snowmelt driven basin in semiarid Chile
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an analysis of the direct impacts of climate change on the hydrology of the upper watersheds of the snowmelt-driven Limari river basin, located in north-central Chile.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antonio Lara,Christian Little,Roberto Urrutia,James McPhee,Camila Alvarez-Garreton,Carlos Oyarzún,Doris Soto,Pablo J. Donoso,Laura Nahuelhual,Mario Pino,Ivan Arismendi +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of forest management on streamflow in two watersheds in the Valdivian Andes (600-650 m of elevation; 39837 0S), and fish abundance as a function of forest cover in 17 watersheds located in the Coastal Range and the Central Depression (39850 0 -42830 0 S).
Journal ArticleDOI
Revealing the impact of forest exotic plantations on water yield in large scale watersheds in South-Central Chile
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the temporal variation of the residuals between best-fit precipitation-runoff relationships and instrumental streamflow records for two large watersheds (Purapel en Nirivilo, PNN and Cauquenes en el Arrayan, CQA) located in the Mediterranean-climate coastal range of South-Central Chile.
Journal ArticleDOI
A diversified multiobjective GA for optimizing reservoir rule curves
TL;DR: Results of this work indicate that the proposed macro-evolutionary multiobjective genetic algorithm (MMGA) is highly competitive and provides a viable alternative to solve multiobjectives optimization problems for water resources planning and management.
