The idea for this Special Issue emerged from the recognition that the Caribbean Basin is fascinatingly diverse (26 countries border it), and a vast majority of its population are under threat from the intense pressures of climate change and human impacts
This Special Issue explores many aspects of hydrologic research spanning several geovolume layers, i.e., the atmosphere, the Earth’s surface, the sub-surface, and approaches to data gathering, such as satellite information and in situ measurements, and those sets generated from numerical modeling
This paper collection is a broad representation of the general concerns of hydrology, focusing on the Caribbean Basin in particular
Summary
Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations The idea for this Special Issue emerged from the recognition that the Caribbean Basin is fascinatingly diverse (26 countries border it), and a vast majority of its population are under threat from the intense pressures of climate change and human impacts. A considerable effort is underway to research the impacts of these factors on issues such as tourism, water availability, subsistence farming, and the commercial production of value crops such as coffee, cocoa, and sugar cane In this Special Issue, the editors seek to present an overview of the relevant research areas and topics that are currently being addressed, such as climate in the Caribbean, water budgets and flows, precipitation patterns, and the ecological aspects surrounding the use and availability of water.
