The Niger River Basin Moisture Sources: A Lagrangian Analysis
The Niger River basin (NRB) is located in the important climatic region of the African Sahel. In this study we use the Lagrangian tridimensional model FLEXPART v9.0 to identify and characterise the moisture sources for the NRB. This method allows the integration of the budget of evaporation minus precipitation over 10-day backward trajectories, thereby identifying the origins of the air masses ...
متن کاملThe Plata River Basin: International Basin Development and Riverine Fisheries
Environmental changes in large river basins are subject to forces external to the water and to biological issues. Before 1960, the Plata River Basin was almost undeveloped. The regulation of the Parana for hydroelectricity has been increasing since the early 1970s. Water in reservoirs of the upper Parana Basin currently comprises more than 70 percent of the mean annual discharge at its confluen...
متن کاملDroughts and Floods in the La Plata Basin in Soil Moisture Data and GRACE
The mapping and forecasting of droughts and floods is an important potential field of application of global soil moisture and water storage products from satellites and models. Especially when extremes in near-surface soil moisture propagate into extremes in total water storage, agricultural production and water supply can be severely impacted. This study relates soil moisture from the WaterGAP...
متن کاملGeneration of Daily Synthetic Precipitation Series: Analyses and Application in La Plata River Basin
Precipitation analysis is embedded in a range of important hydrological studies for hydraulic works construction and maintenance. However, flaws and limitations in records are obstacles often encountered by researchers. One feasible solution for overcoming these obstacles is to generate synthetic series. The main objective of this work is to structure and validate a model for generating synthet...
متن کاملPhytoplankton community of a polymictic reservoir, La Plata River basin, Uruguay.
This paper deals with the analysis of phytoplankton composition and abundance from four sampling stations at the polymictic system, Rinc6n del Bonete water reservoir in Uruguay. Sampling data were obtained in 4 seasonal periods between February and November 1993. A hundred and twenty-four taxa were identified, where Aulacoseira granulata (Ehrenb.) Simon., A. granulata var. angustissima (Muller)...
