About this document
Hydroclimatic Change in Peru by Ronald Limachi Cama is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document analyzes hydroclimatic changes in Peruvian Pacific drainage catchments from 1970-2008. It finds a mean warming of 0.2°C per decade across catchments, with higher temperatures and evapotranspiration in northern latitudes. Using the Budyko-Zhang framework, the study identifies 11 catchments with low water balance disparity, indicating minor climate and human influences. Six catchments showed high sensitivity to climate variability and land use changes based on their hydrological responses.
