Concentration of current-use pesticides in frogs from the Pampa region and correlation of a mixture toxicity index with biological effects
(Elsevier, 2021-11)Contamination with current-use pesticides is frequently mentioned as a key factor in global amphibian declines although a limited number of studies have examined the mixture of pesticides accumulated by free-living frogs. ... -
Drivers of agricultural land - use change in the Argentine Pampas and Chaco regions
(2018-02)Agricultural expansion and intensification in South America's dry forests and grasslands increase agricultural production, but also result in major environmental trade-offs. The Pampas and Chaco regions of Argentina have ... -
Sensitivity analysis of the pesticide in water calculator model for applications in the Pampa región of Argentina
(Elsevier, 2020-01-01)Despite the widespread use of pesticides in the Pampa region of Argentina, mathematical models are rarely employed to predict pesticide fate due to the lack of regionally tested models and the absence of readily available ... -
Statistically based soil climate exposure scenarios for aquatic pesticides fate modelling and exposure assessment in the Pampa Region of Argentina
(Wiley, 2022-09-05)Although pesticides are used intensively in Argentina's Pampa region, the possibility of performing an environmental risk assessment (ERA) remains limited due to the absence of readily available databases to run pesticide ... -
The problem with implementing fish farms in agricultural regions: A trial in a pampean pond highlights potential risks to both human and fish health
(Elsevier, 2020-09)The safety of creating fish farms in agricultural settings was evaluated by growing Piaractus mesopotamicus in a pond, while crops where cultivated in a nearby field under a pesticide application regime typical of the Pampa ... -
Trends in reference evapotranspiration and associated climate variables over the last 30 years (1984–2014) in the Pampa region of Argentina
(2018-07-21)Agricultural production is sensitive to weather and thus directly affected by climate change. In Argentina, the geographic region known as the “Pampa” is at the heart of agricultural production. In this context, the objective ...
