Late Quaternary hydrological and ecological changes in the hyperarid core of the northern Atacama Desert (~ 21 S)
The hyperarid core of the Atacama Desert possesses important reserves of “fossil” or ancient
groundwater, yet the extent and timing of past hydrologic change during the late Quaternary …

[HTML][HTML] Late Pleistocene human occupation of the hyperarid core in the Atacama Desert, northern Chile
Few archeological sites in South America contain uncontroversial evidence for when the first
peopling of the continent occurred. Largely ignored in this debate, extreme environments …

Application of a multimodel approach to account for conceptual model and scenario uncertainties in groundwater modelling
Groundwater models are often used to predict the future behaviour of groundwater systems.
These models may vary in complexity from simplified system conceptualizations to more …
