western Paraguay, and northwest Argentina11; this ‘Chaco model’ implicates northerly winds. Widely documented wind erosion of the southern Altiplano–Puna Plateau (e.g., refs. 17,18,19,20,21) suggests that the loess deposits along the eastern flank of the Andes were largely sourced from ...
This study investigates spatiotemporal variability of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as estimates IAR, IFR andR0for the twelve most affected countries in South America, namely; Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay, and Venezuela. Epidemio...
be considered as the ones relatively closer to the mean, while those outside of the 2 SD along the precipitation or temperature axis can be identified as outliers in that dimension (pink). Likewise, the location of three observations on the XY map provides insight into their agreement with ...
Substantial synergies between protecting carbon stocks and biodiversity have been suggested for tropical moist forests, in South America and elsewhere (Strassburg et al., 2010; Deere et al., 2018; Soto-Navarro et al., 2020). Here we show that such synergies also exist for tropical and ...
The Southern Cone is a region in South America that typically refers to Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay. In this study, we also include Paraguay and the Bolivian lowlands because of their importance in regional LULC (Figure 1). In total, the included area within these five countries is approxim...
Insect pests show phenotypic plasticity as a function of resource availability and limiting conditions. Although Rhynchophorus palmarum displays high variation in certain morphological traits, it is still not clear how and which of these are being filter
The countries with the greatest installed capacity of on-shore wind energy are (i) Brazil, (ii) Chile, (iii) Argentina, and (iv) Uruguay. On the contrary, the countries with the lowest installed on-shore wind capacity are (i) Paraguay, (ii) Ecuador, and (iii) Bolivia. In addition, ...
According to the 95% quantile threshold, a prolonged and intensely severe heatwave event occurring from 9 to 16 January 2022 has been identified in South America. This event notably impacted the regions of northeast Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, and southern Brazil. The heatwave first began to ...
