This website is an online companion to a research project financed by the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) in the frame of an Earth System Sciences call (“Water in Mountain Regions”, 2018).

Our project started in May 2019 and is entitled “AgroClim Huaraz: Spatio-temporal variability in water availability and demand in the Peruvian Andes”.
