Ecoregional and altitudinal distribution of the principal malaria vectors in Colombia [PDF]
Background In Colombia, with over 100,000 cases reported in 2023, malaria is a significant vector-borne disease. The wide range of climates and highly variable topography and land cover of the country support a high species richness, favouring different ...

Estimating taxonomic and functional structure along a tropical estuary: linking metabolic traits and aspects of ecosystem functioning [PDF]
Microbial life forms are among the most ubiquitous on Earth, yet many remain understudied in Caribbean estuaries. We report on the prokaryote community composition of the Urabá Estuary in the Colombian Caribbean using 16S rRNA gene-transcript sequencing.

The Quantified Galloway Ternary Diagram of Delta Morphology. [PDF]
Abstract Waves, rivers, and tides shape delta morphology. Recent studies have enabled predictions of their relative influence on deltas globally, but methods and associated uncertainties remain poorly known. Here, we address that gap and show how to quantify delta morphology within the Galloway ternary diagram of river, wave, and tidal sediment fluxes.

Analysis of Floodplain Dynamics in the Atrato River Colombia Using SAR Interferometry [PDF]
Floodplain water flows have large volumetric flowrates and high complexity in space and time that are difficult to understand using water level gauges. We here analyze the spatial and temporal fluctuations of surface water flows in the floodplain of the Atrato River, Colombia, in order to evaluate their hydrological connectivity.
