      The giant nitrate deposits of the hyperarid Atacama Desert (Chile) are one of the most extraordinary, yet enigmatic, mineral occurrences on Earth. These deposits are complex assemblages of highly soluble nitrates, ...
    • Vicuña, Sebastián; Garreaud Salazar, René; Mc Phee Torres, James (SPRINGER, 2011-04)
      In this paper we present an analysis of the direct impacts of climate change on the hydrology of the upper watersheds (range in elevation from 1,000 to 5,500 m above sea level) of the snowmelt-driven Limari river basin, ...
    • Azócar, Gabriela; Billi, Marco; Calvo, Rubén; Huneeus Lagos, Nicolás; Lagos, Marta; Sapiains Arrué, Rodolfo; Urquiza Gómez, Anahí (Springer, 2021)
      In Latin America, there is scarce comparative research on variables associated with the perception of climate change. This hinders the ability of governments to take mitigation and adaptation measures in the face of the ...
    • Rutllant Costa, José; Fuenzalida Ponce, Humberto; Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio (AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION, 2003)
      The DICLIMA field experiment was designed to test and quantify the hypothesis of an afternoon enhancement of the coastal subsidence in the extremely arid northern Chile because of solar heating over the west slope of the ...
    • Cai, WJ; McPhaden, MJ; Grimm, AM; Rodrigues, RR; Taschetto, AS; Garreaud, RD; Dewitte, B; Poveda, G; Ham, YG; Santoso, A; Ng, B; Anderson, W; Wang, GJ; Geng, T; Jo, HS; Marengo, JA; Alves, LM; Osman, M; Li, SJ; Wu, LX; Karamperidou, C; Takahashi, K; Vera, C (Springer Nature, 2020)
    • Brasseur, Guy P.; Gallardo Frías, Laura (Wiley-Blackwell, 2016)
      This perspective paper reviews progress made in the last decades to enhance the communication and use of climate information relevant to the political and economic decision process. It focuses, specifically, on the ...
    • Rozas, Vicente; Le Quesne, Carlos; Rojas-Badilla, Moisés; González-Reyes, Álvaro; Donoso, Sergio; Olano, José Miguel (Elsevier B.V., 2019)
      Trees’ growth responses to climate may depend on tree age and site conditions. In dioecious species, sex adds an extra level of complexity due to differential reproductive effort between the sexes and potentially sex-related ...
    • Montecinos, Aldo; Muñoz, Ricardo C.; Oviedo, Stephanie; Martínez, Andrés; Villagrán, Víctor (American Meteorological Society, 2017)
      The existence of strong easterly winds down the western slope of the south-central Andes in Chile, locallyknown as Puelche winds, has been known by the meteorological community since at least the mid-twentiethcentury. ...
    • Fuenzalida Ponce, Humberto; Sánchez, Rodrigo; Garreaud Salazar, René (2005)
      The occurrence of cutoff lows (COLs) in the Southern Hemisphere at 500 hPa is studied for a 31-year period using atmospheric NCEP-NCAR reanalysis. The methodology combines objective detection and tracking for cyclonic ...
    • Romero, Pablo T.; Donoso, Rodrigo; López, Pamela; Miranda, Ana; Rodríguez, Leandro; Chrzanowsky, Dominique; Asenjo, Maria S.; Burgos, Gonzalo; Villegas, Pablo; Desir, Julie; Moya, Graciela; Herrera, Luisa M. (Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2019)
      Background: Corneal Dystrophy and Perceptive Deafness (CDPD) or Harboyan syndrome is an autosomal recessive rare disorder, characterized by congenital corneal opacities and progressive sensorineural hearing loss, which ...
    • Strober, Bruce E.; van der Walt, Joelle M.; Armstrong, April W.; Bourcier, Marc; Carvalho, Andre V.E.; Chouela, Edgardo; Cohen, Arnon D.; de la Cruz, Claudia; Ellis, Charles N.; Finlay, Andrew Y.; Gottlieb, Alice B.; Gudjonsson, Johann E.; Iversen, Lars; Kleyn, C. Eli (Springer Healthcare, 2019)
      Engaging global key opinion leaders, the International Psoriasis Council (IPC) held a day-long roundtable discussion with the primary purpose to discuss the treatment goals of psoriasis patients and worldwide barriers to ...
    • Edwards, Dylan J.; Cortes, Mar; Rykman-Peltz, Avrielle; Chang, Johanna; Elder, Jessica; Thickbroom, Gary; Mariman, Juan J.; Gerber, Linda M.; Oromendia, Clara; Krebs, Hermano I.; Fregni, Felipe; Volpe, Bruce T.; Pascual-Leone, Alvaro (IOS Press, 2019)
      Background: Intensive robot-assisted arm training in the chronic phase of stroke recovery can lead to clinical improvement. Combinatorial therapeutic approaches are sought to further optimize stroke recovery. Transcranial ...
    • Verdugo Latorre, Renato; Matamala, José Manuel (Elsevier, 2020)
    • Bonomo, Flavia; Mazzoleni, María Pía; Stein, Maya (Elsevier, 2017)
      We consider the problem of clique coloring, that is, coloring the vertices of a given graph such that no (maximal) clique of size at least two is monocolored. It is known that interval graphs are 2-clique colorable. In ...
    • Correa Haeussler, José; Megow, Nicole (Elsevier, 2015)
      We consider the problem of partitioning a graph into cliques of bounded cardinality. The goal is to find a partition that minimizes the sum of clique costs where the cost of a clique is given by a set function on the nodes. ...
    • Bonomo, Flavia; Durán, Guillermo; Safe, Martín D.; Wagler, Annegret K. (Elsevier, 2015)
      A graph is clique-perfect if the maximum number of pairwise disjoint maximal cliques equals the minimum number of vertices intersecting all maximal cliques for each induced subgraph. In this work, we give necessary and ...
    • Acevedo, J. P. (WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2013-02)
