(Universidad de Chile, 2022)El actual contexto de cambio climático y sequias sostenidas en regiones áridas y semiáridas del planeta durante las últimas décadas, hacen que la preocupación por la disponibilidad del agua se convierta en una temática ...
-
(Amer Geophysical Union, 2016)Within large uncertainties in the precipitation response to greenhouse gas forcing, the Southeast Pacific drying stands out as a robust signature within climate models. A precipitation decline, of consistent direction but ...
-
(MDPI, 2021)The effect of water deficit on growth, water status and stomatal functioning of Prosopis tamarugo was investigated under controlled water conditions. The study was done at the Antumapu Experiment Station of the University ...
-
(Elsevier, 2015)Canopy conductance (g(c)) is the main controller of plant-atmospheric interaction and a key element in understanding how plants cope with drought. Empirical g(c) models provide a good inference as to how environmental ...
-
(Cambridge University Press, England, 2021)Surface albedo typically dominates the mass balance of mountain glaciers, though long-term trends and patterns of glacier albedo are seldom explored. We calculated broadband shortwave albedo for glaciers in the central ...
-
Growth of provenances of Cryptocarya alba during water stress and after re–watering in the nursery (Univ Sao Paolo, Brazil, 2021)Intensification of drought in Mediterranean–type climates has limited seedling establishment. The knowledge of the ecology of selected species and its intraspecific variation to water stress at the seedling stage should ...
-
(Nature, 2021)Forest restoration have had limited success due to intense and prolonged droughts in Mediterraneantype ecosystems. In this context, knowledge of growth and physiology in seedlings of different provenances can be useful ...
-
(MDPI, 2017)Droughts are a recurrent and complex natural hazard whose frequency and magnitude are expected to increase with climate change. Despite the advances in responding and adapting to droughts (with the development of new ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2020)Glaciers in the dry Chilean Andes provide important ecological services, yet their mass balance response to past and ongoing climate change has been little studied. This study examines the recent (2002-2015), historical ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2020)Quantifying the high elevation winter snowpack in mountain environments is crucial for lowland water supply, though it is notoriously difficult to accurately estimate due to a lack of observations and/or uncertainty in the ...
-
(Universidad Austral de Chile, 2018)© 2018, Universidad Austral de Chile. All rights reserved. Lithraea caustica (litre) is an endemic tree species of Chile that grows in a Mediterranean climate, characterized by a summer with low water availability in the ...
-
(Springer Tokyo, 2018)© 2018, Springer Japan KK, part of Springer Nature. A severe drought has affected central Chile since 2009. Various adaptation responses have been developed, and a participatory process is required to learn from them. To ...
-
(Blackwell Publishing, 2014)Araucaria araucana (Araucaria) is a long-lived conifer growing along a sharp west-east biophysical gradient in the Patagonian Andes. The patterns and climate drivers of Araucaria growth have typically been documented on ...
-
(FAO/CIRAD, 2015)Quinoa thrives under a wide range of soil and climate conditions, from cold and arid areas to wet tropical regions. The adaptability of quinoa to various levels of drought is due to the differentiation of a diversity ...
-
(Universidad Austral Chile, 2018)Lithraea caustica (litre) is an endemic tree species of Chile that grows in a Mediterranean climate, characterized by a summer with low water availability in the soil, high solar radiation and high temperatures. In these ...
-
(Elsevier, 2020)The effects of climate change have forced to search quickly new strategies to achieve sustainable agriculture in the context of a growing demand for food. Rootstocks have shown to have a key role in the resistance and ...
-
(Universidad de Chile, 2022)La escasez hídrica es una problemática que ha obligado a miles de personas desplazarse entre distintos territorios en búsqueda de agua para su sobrevivencia, empujado una dramática migración climática. Considerando este ...
-
(2011)Floral trait expression in wild populations varies in relation to environmental gradients. Variation can be observed among and within plant populations. We investigated the changes in floral phenotype within populations ...
-
(MDPI, 2020)Since 2010, Chile has experienced one of the most severe droughts over the last century, the so-called mega-drought (MD). The MD conditions, combined with intensive agricultural activities and the current water management ...
-
(Sociedad Chilena de la Ciencia del Suelo, 2018-06)Understanding the physiological mechanisms of response that allow plants to survive under suboptimal conditions such as drought stress is of particular interest, because of global climate change that threat the suitability ...
