Latitudinal pattern in plant composition along the Peruvian and Chilean fog oases
Plant Biosystems, 2014Fog oases in western South America (locally named lomas) are distributed in a kind of fragmented or patchy way into the coastal desert. Their origin, as well as their current ecological connections in terms of species' dispersal capability, remains an open question.

Rebelling Against Violent Regimes: The Case of Lima's Fog Oases
Sustainability transitions are an increasingly relevant field of research that focusses on the necessary shifts to break away from unsustainable patterns of production and consumption to achieve more sustainable scenarios. Despite being a relatively young field of research, it has made significant progress with emphasis on power, governance, and the ...exaly +2 more sources
The influence of El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on fog oases along the Peruvian and Chilean coastal deserts [PDF]
, 2010 Fog oases such as Lomas formation along the Chilean and Peruvian coasts are dependent on water inputs from oceanic fog. Vegetation is characterized by a marked seasonality which is often affected by climatic oscillations such as ENSO. Diversity and vegetation patterns are highly variable because of their fragmented spatial distribution. We hypothesized

Euclea schimperi, a widespread Afromontane shrub or tree, occurs in the Arabian Peninsula in fragmented, semi‐evergreen or evergreen woodland refugia in wet escarpment localities of the western and southern mountain chains. In the southern coastal mountains, the (semi‐) evergreen woodland with

AbstractSeveral species in the genus Oxalis occupy Peruvian fog oases (Lomas) with a significant habitat‐adapted and endemic diversity. Acknowledging this aspect, the genus Oxalis is a conceivable group for evolutionary and biogeographic hypothesis testing; however, molecular resources for the genus still need improvement.
