Abstract Mountain precipitation varies systematically with elevation—a relationship known as the elevation dependence of precipitation. This dependence governs hydrological partitioning and ecosystem stability in high‐mountain regions worldwide. However, the elevation dependence of precipitation and its underlying physical drivers across global high ...

Érosion et transport de matière sur le versant occidental des Andes semiarides du Nord du Chili (27°-32°S): depuis une approche à grande échelle temporelle et spatiale, jusqu'à l'évolution quaternaire d'un système fluvial [PDF]
La Cordillère Principale des Andes semi-arides est un relief transitoire qui se développe suite au soulèvement des Andes initié à l'Oligocène. L'altitude des pédiments de la Cordillère Principale par rapport à ceux de la Cordillère de la Côte indique que

Abstract Climate warming is increasingly enabling species to cross bioclimatic barriers, driving altitudinal range expansions of species and facilitating biological invasions into ecosystems that were historically protected by low temperatures. Among these cold ecosystems are tropical alpine systems—páramos—found in the tropical Andes above 3000 m ...

Bauhinia naniflora: a new species of section Amaria (Cercidoideae: Leguminosae) from Colombia
Bauhinia, the most species‐rich genus of Cercidoideae (Leguminosae), is pantropically distributed and includes four sections in the Americas. During an ongoing taxonomic revision of American Cercidoideae, a new species of Bauhinia sect. Amaria ser. Decandrae currently endemic to Colombia was identified and is here described as Bauhinia naniflorasp nov.
