Why is it important?

This study is important because it relates the effects of land use change with elements with water recharge, meteorological forecasting and hydrological modeling.

Perspectives

Our perspective is that similar case studies can be replicated, using the proposed methodology in different Andean conditions in South America, and comparing results.
