Soil response to long-term projections of extreme temperature and precipitation in the southern La Plata Basin

Projected changes were estimated considering the main variables which take part in soil-atmosphere interaction. The analysis was focused on the potential impact of these changes on soil hydric condition under extreme precipitation and evapotranspiration, using the combination of Global Climate Model...
