Diseño y construcción una estación autónoma de monitoreo par los glaciares del Ecuador

Abstract

The tropical glaciers of the Ecuadorian Andes act as highly sensitive barometers for cli mate change; their reaction to shifts in temperature and precipitation is immediate. Onthe Antisana volcano, specifically Glacier 15, research has observed a persistent loss of mass since the late 20th century. This process accelerates violently during El Nino˜ events, while stabilizing only temporarily during La Nina years [2]. Long-term geodetic ˜records confirm this trajectory: the Antisana ice cap shed approximately 42% of its surface area between 1956 and 2016, a reduction that mirrors the region’s progressivewarming [3]...
