Examining the complementarity in belowground water use between different varieties and ages of Arabica coffee plants and dominant shade tree species in an organic agroecosystem Open
Traditional Arabica coffee plantations in which coffee is grown under diverse shade tree cover are increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural practice because of their ecological and socioeconomic benefits as well as their resil…

<i>Sap Flow Analyzer</i> : A tool to standardize sap flow estimation and scaling to whole‐tree water use using the <span>HFD</span> method Open
Sap flow measurements are fundamental to understanding water use in trees and could aid in predicting climate change effects on forest function. Deriving knowledge from such measurements requires empirical calibrations and upscaling method…

A GIS-big data model for improving the coverage and analysis processes of territory observation, and integrating ground-based observations with retrospective meteorological data Open
This paper presents Kawak, a GIS-bigdata model for merging retrospective meteorological data with ground-based observations to achieve comprehensive territorial coverage. This model identifies areas without active ground-based stations and…

Stream food webs in tropical mountains rely on allochthonous carbon regardless of land use Open
The relative importance of allochthonous and autochthonous carbon (C) as sources of energy for tropical stream food webs remains an open question. Allochthonous C might be the main energy source for small and shaded forest streams, while a…

Land use scenarios, seasonality, and stream identity determine the water physicochemistry of tropical cloud forest streams Open
Background Land use is a major factor determining stream water physicochemistry. However, most streams move from one land use type to another as they drain their watersheds. Here, we studied three land use scenarios in a tropical cloud for…

Global transpiration data from sap flow measurements: the SAPFLUXNET database Open
Plant transpiration links physiological responses of vegetation to water supply and demand with hydrological, energy, and carbon budgets at the land–atmosphere interface. However, despite being the main land evaporative flux at the global …

Coffee and shade trees show complementary use of soil water in a traditional agroforestry ecosystem Open
Globally, coffee has become one of the most sensitive commercial crops, being affected by climate change. Arabica coffee (Coffea arabica) grows in traditionally shaded agroforestry systems in tropical regions and accounts for ∼70 % of coff…

Interactions between payments for hydrologic services, landowner decisions, and ecohydrological consequences: synergies and disconnection in the cloud forest zone of central Veracruz, Mexico Open
Payments for Hydrologic Services (PHS) programs are increasingly used as a policy tool to provide incentives for upstream landowners to adopt land use activities that favor sustainable provision of high-quality water to downstream areas. H…
