La Mitigación de heladas en los camellones del altiplano andino
Bulletin de l'Institut Français d'Études Andines, 2003 The raised fields system is an old technique of soil and water management, which was very frequent in the Lake Titicaca region before the Spanish conquest. It essentially consists of a series of earth platforms surrounded by water canals. Crops are grown

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Human populations native to high altitude have evolved distinct physiological adaptations to chronic hypoxia. This adaptation is evident in the O2 transport cascade. In this review, with brief inclusion of the related genetic adaptations, we compare the O2 cascade across three well‐characterized high‐altitude populations: Andeans (Aymara and ...

A Measurement of the Angular Power Spectrum of the CMB from l = 100 to 400 [PDF]
, 1999 We report on a measurement of the angular spectrum of the CMB between $l\approx 100$ and $l\approx 400$ made at 144 GHz from Cerro Toco in the Chilean altiplano.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend In lowland mammals that ascend to high elevation, hypoxia‐induced changes in the pulmonary circulation can give rise to hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) and associated right‐ventricle (RV) hypertrophy. Andean mice with broad elevational ranges have greater heart mass relative to body size at higher elevations, but they ...

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.Sediments, unlithified and lithified microbial mats in the Salar de Atacama, are formed by similar pathways involving coupled precipitation of authigenic Mg silicate and calcium carbonate. Differences in products reflect differences in the initial distribution of organic biomass.

Projections of Atmospheric Moisture Transport Over South America in a Changing Climate
International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 2, February 2026.End‐of‐century (2071–2100) climate projections show significant contrasts in atmospheric moisture over South America, with increased divergence over Northern Chile and Eastern Brazil and stronger convergence over the La Plata and Magdalena basins. Moisture convergence raises risks of extreme rainfall and floods, while divergence intensifies droughts ...
