Innovations in rural and agricultural finance: New approaches for index insurance: ENSO insurance in Peru by Skees, Jerry, Collier, Benjamin

“…The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a climate event associated with warming sea surface temperatures in the Pacific Ocean. In years of extreme El Niño events, areas in northern Peru experience catastrophic flooding. …”

Two summers of São Paulo drought: Origins in the western tropical Pacific by Seth, A., Fernandes, K., Camargo, S.J.

“…We find that a persistent warm sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly in the western tropical Pacific Ocean was an important driver of drought via atmospheric teleconnection in the two December–February seasons. …”

Tracer hydrology of the data-scarce and heterogeneous Central American Isthmus by Sánchez-Murrillo, Ricardo, Esquivel-Hernández, Germain, Corrales-Salazar, José L., Castro-Chacón, Laura, Durán-Quesada, Ana M., Guerrero-Hernández, Manuel, Delgado, Valeria, Barbereba, Javier, Montenegro-Rayo, Katia, Calderón, Heyddy, 10 autores más.

“…Groundwater and surface water isotope ratios depicted the strong orographic separation into the Caribbean and Pacific domains, mainly induced by the governing moisture transport from the Caribbean Sea, complex rainfall producing systems across the N-S mountain range, and the subsequent mixing with local evapotranspiration, and, to a lesser degree, the eastern Pacific Ocean fluxes. Groundwater recharge was characterized by (a) depleted recharge in highland areas (72.3%), (b) rapid recharge via preferential flow paths (13.1%), and enriched recharge due to near-surface secondary fractionation (14.6%). …”

Climate & Food Security Monitoring Bulletin by International Water Management Institute, World Food Programme

“…For the next three months, near-normal rains are forecasted, associated with the conditions created by a mild La-Nina event currently observed in the equatorial Pacific Ocean and neutral IOD in the Indian Ocean, which may not negatively influence the water storage and cultivation in the 2021 Yala season.…”

Isotope-informed water sources and recharge mechanisms in a tropical karst environment of the Talgua River Basin, Honduras by Cardona-Hernández, Jorge, Esquivel-Hernández, Germain, Rebelo Monteiro, Lucilena, Sánchez-Murillo, Ricardo, Cotrim, Marycel E.B, Sánchez-Gutiérrez, Rolando, Birkel, Christian, Peña-Paz, Tania, Benegas-Negri, Laura

“…HYSPLIT air mass trajectory and cluster analysis using δ18O and deuterium excess (d-excess) revealed that moisture sources in the Talgua River basin originated mainly from the Caribbean Sea (89 %) with minimal contributions from the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico (11 %). Recharge is mainly driven by heavy, isotopically depleted rainfall during the May–November (wet season), as indicated by the rainfall to groundwater (P/GW) 18O/16O ratios. d-excess and the line-conditioned excess (LC-excess) values indicate substantial meteoric inputs during the wet season, reflecting a recycled-moisture signal that contributes to recharge, with only minor evapoconcentration effects. …”

Acaulospora flava, a new arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus from Coffea arabica and Plukenetia volubilis plantations at the sources of the Amazon river in Peru by Corazon Guivin, Mike Anderson, Vallejos Tapullima, Adela, De la Sota Ricaldi, Ana María, Cerna Mendoza, Agustín, Guerrero Abad, Juan Carlos, Santos, Viviane Monique, Da Silva, Glandstone Alves, Oehl, Fritz

“…The later two fungi had so far been recorded by concomitant morphological and molecular analyses only from tropical islands, A. herrerae from Cuba in the Golf of Mexico and A. fragilissima from New Caledonia in the southwest Pacific Ocean close to Australia. In this study, the ITS region of A. herrerae was analyzed for the first time and deposited in the public databases. …”
