    • A new solution to mitigate hydropeaking? Batteries versus re-regulation reservoirs 
      Anindito, Yoga; Haas, Jannik; Olivares, Marcelo; Nowak, Wolfgang; Kern, Jordan (Elsevier, 2019)
      Hydropower plants frequently operate at high output during peak hours and at low output (or even shutoff) during off-peak hours. This scheme, called "hydropeaking", is harmful to downstream ecosystems. Operational constraints ...
    • Annotated list of island lady beetles from Chile (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) 
      González, Guillermo; Cotoras, Darko D.; Grez Villarroel, Audrey (Magnolia Press, 2020)
      We provide a list of coccinellids (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) species from the island territories of Chile. We report a total of 68 records, coming from ten islands, including 42 species corresponding to more than 35% of ...
    • Holocene variation in the small mammal fauna of central Chile 
      Simonetti Zambelli, Javier Andrés; Saavedra, Bárbara (Elsevier GmbH, 1998)
    • Patchy landscapes in arid environments: Nonlinear analysis of the interaction-redistribution model 
      Messaoudi, M.; Clerc Gavilán, Marcel; Berríos Caro, Ernesto; Pinto Ramos, D.; Khaffou, M.; Makhoute, A.; Tlidi, M. (American Institute of Physics, 2020)
      We consider a generic interaction-redistribution model of vegetation dynamics to investigate the formation of patchy vegetation in semi-arid and arid landscapes. First, we perform a weakly nonlinear analysis in the ...
    • Water quality 
      Pastén, Pablo; Vega, Alejandra; Lizama Allende, Katherine Eugenia; Guerra, Paula; Pizarro, Jaime (Springer, 2021)
      Water quality in Chile is characterized by diverse hydrochemical environments and their interaction with human activities and natural factors. The main water monitoring network is operated by the DGA (Dirección General de ...
