Stream closure and water allocation in the Colombian Andes

International Journal of Water, 2014
In the Andean region water for human activities is commonly extracted from small streams. When water is abundant, equity considerations in water allocation arrangements are not apparent; but when streams approach closure, a closer look at water distribution and use are necessary to diagnose and address allocation concerns.

Linking Landslide Patterns to Transient Landscapes in the Northern Colombian Andes

Journal of Geophysical Research F: Earth Surface
AbstractLandslides are among the most recognizable evidence of hillslope erosion in tectonically active mountains. Yet, how much of the distribution of landslides of different ages relates to, or is inherited from, the pattern of topographic metrics of landscape evolution remains partially unresolved, and especially so in tropical areas. We derive such
