Understanding hydrological responses is key to analyzing the interplay between hydrometeorological processes, yet capturing spatiotemporal variability within basins remains challenging without an integrated assessment addressing interconnected dynamics and change points from climatic and human influences. This study developed a framework combining hydrology model, mutation test, and hydrological sensitivity analysis to evaluate this interplay in Upper Paraná River Basin, Brazil, from 1980 to 2020. The results indicated a general downward trend in the monthly average annual runoff and precipitation in the last decade. The hydrological mutation analysis identified obvious shifts in around 1999 and 2008. The results show a significant temporal shift in the drivers of runoff. Climate change dominated between 1980 and 1998, explaining approximately two-thirds of the total variation. The impact of climate change decreased by 23 % between 1999 and 2007 due to increased human activities such as reservoir construction and land-use change. From 2008 to 2020, continued precipitation reductions and anthropogenic interference led to a more complex hydrological response. Implementing targeted measures, such as regulating reservoir operations and optimizing irrigation system, offers viable pathways for ensuring the sustainable management and utilization of water resources.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50047,"journal":{"name":"Journal of South American Earth Sciences","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 105834"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145326178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using records of ground and air temperature, and by arithmetically adjusting present-day temperature values with the estimated cooling that occurred during the LPM, we reconstructed permafrost coverage and periglacial dynamics for this period. Between 1960 and 2020, the average temperature in the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt increased by 0.43 °C. Furthermore, the presence of permafrost during the LPM was confirmed: its lower limit was located at 3870 m a.s.l., covering an area of 7 km<sup>2</sup>, while seasonal frozen ground extended down to 3553 m a.s.l. The active layer persisted from April to June, with an average thickness of 55 cm near the summit. The ground profile exhibited a geothermal gradient of 0.0197 °C/cm, while the vertical air temperature gradient was −0.0057 °C/m. Freeze-thaw cycles followed a parabolic trend, with a total of 148 cycles near the summit, increasing to 244 cycles at 4137 m a.s.l., and decreasing again to 84 cycles at 3870 m a.s.l. These results suggest that the periglacial conditions and landscape at this mountain during the LPM were similar to the present-day conditions at Pico de Orizaba volcano.

More than two-thirds of these have been silicic, with most being postglacial rhyolites (72–78 % SiO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;) concentrated near the eponymous lake (LdM), an extraordinary anomaly in the Quaternary Andes and unprecedented in this 1.5–Ma-old volcanic field as a whole. The postglacial field includes &gt;70 separate vents distributed over ∼360 km&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; that together produced the many distinct eruptive events, of which 55 are rhyolitic (73 %−77 % SiO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;), 18 are rhyodacitic (68 %−72 % SiO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;), 4 are dacitic (63 %–66 % SiO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;), 26 are intermediate (54–62 % SiO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;), and 2 are true basalts (50 %–53 % SiO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;). Of these, most originated from single-vent domes, cones, or craters that erupted effusive and/or explosive products, each with relatively short lifespans. Some originated from multi-vent centers, the largest one being the Barrancas complex southeast of the lake, which has as many as 18 vents that erupted over as much as 10 kyr. The LdM basin itself is ringed by 13 separate silicic centers, many of which are also multi-vent and built over time by multiple explosive and extrusive events. These surround the lake, near the middle of which is the vent for the high-silica rhyolite Plinian eruption that produced the “&lt;em&gt;Rhyolite of Laguna del Maule&lt;/em&gt;”, which was the first and largest silicic event from the postglacial field. Explosive and effusive products from all these events have been put in a time-stratigraphic framework supported by radiocarbon dating and chemical analyses to reconstruct the postglacial eruptive history. Correlations of pyroclastics to eruptive vents have provided a spatial-temporal framework that helps characterize the magmatic system beneath the LdM field. Distribution of both silicic and mafic vents support the likelihood that two separate magmatic systems produced the postglacial eruptions in the volcanic field—one in the Laguna del Maule basin and the other at the Barrancas complex—with a cluster of silicic vents at each and mafic vents situated between the two. Vent distributions, compositions of eruptive products, and temporal and spatial trends of eruptive units suggest that the abundant rhyodacitic and mafic units in the LdM basin have no common magma reservoir, but instead each had its own evolutionary trend. In contrast, there is enough affinity among some of the rhyolitic units in the Basin to imply magmatic connections and/or continuity that span both time and space, although neither geographic proximity nor temporal similarity have singular control on LdM-basin rhyolite compositions. Compositional trends through time at the Barrancas center suggest the rhyolitic eruptions at West and East Barrancas were derived from separate, zoned reservoirs that were tapped in batches, not permitting development of a large high-silica reservoir such as tha","PeriodicalId":50047,"journal":{"name":"Journal of South American Earth Sciences","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 105813"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145364651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Later, a second movement of the first basement sheet transferred about 8 km of displacement towards several out-of-sequence thrusts, giving rise to the intermontane Humahuaca Basin.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50047,"journal":{"name":"Journal of South American Earth Sciences","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 105809"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145326188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study pursued three main objectives: (1) to identify critical precipitation thresholds for landslide-triggering rainfall in the Recife Metropolitan Region (RMR), Brazil, from 2016 to 2022, using two empirical methods— the event duration (ED), based on accumulated precipitation, and the intensity–duration (ID), based on rainfall intensity over specific periods; (2) to create a comprehensive landslide inventory map; and (3) to develop a regional susceptibility map using machine-learning algorithms (RF, KNN, XGBoost, and NB) to identify key destabilizing factors. A total of 221 landslides were mapped across the region. The ED method showed stronger correlations with local landslide occurrences (R<sup>2</sup> &gt; 97.5 %) compared to the ID method (R<sup>2</sup> &lt; 90.5 %). Susceptibility modeling incorporated nine factors, with land use, elevation, and geomorphology emerging as the most influential in slope instability. The resulting susceptibility map was classified into five categories: very low (28 %), low (35 %), moderate (27 %), high (9 %), and very high (1 %). Model performance was validated using ROC analysis, with the RF model achieving excellent predictive capability (AUC = 0.905). These findings offer valuable insights for landslide risk management in the study area, highlighting the importance of accumulated precipitation and terrain characteristics. The susceptibility map offers an evidence-based foundation for proactive measures to mitigate landslide impacts.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50047,"journal":{"name":"Journal of South American Earth Sciences","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 105812"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145326177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
