What is it about?
It is an estimation of the evaporation rate from high mountain tropical lakes upon the use of natural isotopes.

Why is it important?
Evaporation is a key aspect in the delicate balance of these rain-fed tropical lakes, which offers invaluable eco-systemical services but are very little studied.
Perspectives
It is a pioneering empirical study that surely will be a benchmark for future worldwide studies on related topics.
