Estimation of Water Loss Due to Evaporation in the El Cazadero Dam, Mexico, during a Drought
Ciencia e Ingeniería Neogranadina, 2021 In Mexico, large dams have been a critical component of the water supply. However, the places where they can be built are scarcer every day, a situation that adds to the high costs and social conflicts that they cause. Much of the water stored in dams is

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2020 Poverty involves both low income levels and high income uncertainty. Do both these dimensions of being poor capture attention in ways that distort decision-making and trap people in poverty? We examine these issues using real-life shocks faced by farmers in Brazil: random payday variation affecting income levels, and rainfall shocks that affect income ...

Streamflow drought: implication of drought definitions and its application for drought forecasting [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2020 Abstract. Streamflow drought forecasting is a key element of contemporary drought early warning systems (DEWS). The term streamflow drought forecasting (not streamflow forecasting), however, has created confusion within the scientific hydrometeorological community as well as in operational weather and water management services.
