Paramo, Climate change, Climate variability, Extreme temperaturesAbstract
The paramos are unique ecosystems in the northern region of South America, characterized by their vast natural wealth and biodiversity. In part. These are made possible by climatic variability that can be affected by the phenomenon of climate change. This study investigates the impact of climate change on the regional climate in the Guantiva – La Rusia páramo through statistical analysis of parametric tests. It was identified that maximum temperatures trend to increase with a gradient of up to 0.8 °C/10 years and monthly precipitation in the rainy months increases by up to 20 mm/10 years, while their variables did not confirm pattern of change. The changes in the identified climatic patterns can cause changes in the thermal floors of the paramo, and modification of natural vegetation covers together with the anthropic transformations present in the territory.
