Local Knowledge, Agents and Models for the adaptation to climatic variability of livestock farmers in Uruguay [PDF]
, 2012 Basaltic soils in Uruguay occupy 3.5 million hectares, 25% of the country, and are mainly exploited by extensive family ranching production systems. These shallow soils have an extremely reduced capacity to accumulate water that make them more sensitive ...

A model of rainfall based on finite-state cellular automata [PDF]
, 2004 The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that a finite state cellular automata model is suitable for modeling rainfall in the space-time plane. The time-series properties of the simulated series are matched with historical rainfall data gathered ...

Terra Latinoamericana, 2018 Soil properties vary over time with soils presenting different susceptibility to runoff and erosion during the year. Under no-tillage cropping, soil physical properties could change mainly due to the climatic factor effect, crop type and wheel traffic ...

, 2011 Carbon flux models that are largely driven by remotely sensed data can be used to estimate gross primary productivity (GPP) over large areas, but despite the importance of peatland ecosystems in the global carbon cycle, relatively little attention has ...

Hydrological Modelling Using a Rainfall Simulator over an Experimental Hillslope Plot
Hydrology, 2017 Hydrological processes are complex to compute in hilly areas when compared to plain areas. The governing processes behind runoff generation on hillslopes are subsurface storm flow, saturation excess flow, overland flow, return flow and pipe storage.

Adaptation of Agro-IBIS model for Eucalyptus carbon budget estimation at regional level- a case study in Sao Paulo State, Brazil [PDF]
, 2019 Highly productive fast-growing Eucalyptus plantations cover more than 5 million hectares in Brazil and exhibit very dynamic carbon fluxes throughout their 6-7 year rotations. These plantations quickly shift from C sources at the beginning of the rotation

Surface roughness effects on runoff and soil erosion rates under simulated rainfall [PDF]
, 2010 Soil surface roughness is identified as one of the controlling factors governing runoff and soil loss. Yet, most studies pay little attention to soil surface roughness.
