Meteorological conditions leading to the 2015 Salgar flash flood: lessons for vulnerable regions in tropical complex terrain [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019 Flash floods are a recurrent hazard for many developing Latin American regions due to their complex mountainous terrain and the rainfall characteristics in the tropics. These regions often lack the timely and high-quality information needed to assess, in

The Asymmetric Hydrodynamic Structure of a Wind‐Dominated River Plume
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract This study investigates the velocity and salinity structure of the large surface‐attached, low‐latitude, and microtidal plume of the Magdalena River (southern Caribbean Sea) during a period of high freshwater discharge and variable wind conditions. The plume was analyzed through observations at multiple transects along, across, and diagonal to

Linking Landslide Patterns to Transient Landscapes in the Northern Colombian Andes
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.Abstract Landslides 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.

Transient slab flattening beneath Colombia
Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 Subduction of the Nazca and Caribbean Plates beneath northwestern Colombia is seen in two distinct Wadati Benioff Zones, one associated with a flat slab to the north and one associated with normal subduction south of 5.5°N.

A Biogeochemical Imprint of the Panama Basin in the North Andean Arc
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 Oceans and continents mingle at convergent margins. However, the effects of this interaction in the construction and evolution of the continental crust remain poorly understood. Here we use geochemical data from the Panama Basin and the Northern Volcanic
