Abstract Aquifer characterization is essential for predicting aquifer responses and ensuring sustainable groundwater management. In this study we develop a sparse‐grids‐based Bayesian framework to infer the hydraulic conductivity and the soil compressibility of over‐exploited aquifer systems using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) ground

Abstract Large‐scale hydrological models are progressing toward sub‐kilometer resolutions to achieve “locally relevant hydrological simulations.” However, grid‐based domain representations introduce significant errors in streamflow within small catchments, a challenge that remains unresolved by state‐of‐the‐art modeling schemes, such as 8‐directional ...

Abstract Materiality tends to play only a marginal role in mainstream theorizations of populism. In Ecuador, however, where populism has been described as the norm rather than the exception, obras (public works) are a crucial element of politics. They are framed as the gifts of leaders to the people, shaping people's lifeworlds and embedding leaders in

Abstract Public works programmes (PWPs) are pervasively used to tackle poverty and unemployment, and to build infrastructure and skills in low‐ and middle‐income countries. While their impacts on poverty, food security and labour outcomes have been widely documented, there is little research focusing on the role of PWPs in supporting household climate ...

Abstract Scholars have largely blamed shipbuilding for maritime expansion for being the main driver of deforestation in early modern Portugal. This article sets out to revisit the origins and reproduction of this narrative by analysing three interconnected elements in a case study of Lisbon's shipyards.

The volcanic slope rating has been adapted to the volcanic slopes of the Canary Islands, after conducting an exhaustive fieldwork to compare the different types of volcanic structures. The Type B slopes required the most adjustments, leading to a new classification for them, Type P.

Abstract This paper explores selective aspects of the historical processes of organization of the kichwa peasantry in the Andes of Ecuador. Based on the analysis of two representative cases of confrontation between peasants and landowners over access to land in the province of Chimborazo, it discusses the relevance of the concept of “gamonalismo” as ...
