From the global to the subnational scale: landing the compositional monitoring of drinking water and sanitation services
(Elsevier, 2022-09)
Article
Open AccessMonitoring of access to water and sanitation services is stipulated in Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 6.1 and 6.2, respectively. The monitoring is carried out with a global, regional and country vision. However, in ... -
Spatially-structured human mortality modelling using air pollutants with a compositional approach
(Elsevier, 2022-03)
Article
Open AccessThe human mortality models with a demographic approach are performed in function of time. The addition of information (social, economic, and environmental) in the structure of demographic models allows fitting observed ... -
A new measure of hygiene inequality applied to urban-rural comparison
(2022-01)
Article
Open AccessAccess to hygiene services remains one of the most urgent challenges facing countries, especially low-income ones. This has become much more critical in the current context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The WHO/UNICEF Joint ... -
Compositional spatio-temporal PM2.5 modelling in wildfires
(2021-10)
Article
Open AccessWildfires are natural ecological processes that generate high levels of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) that are dispersed into the atmosphere. PM2.5 could be a potential health problem due to its size. Having adequate ... -
Water quality, social context and hygiene in high-Andean rural communities in Huancavelica (Peru)
(Universidade de Santiago de Compostela. Servizo de Publicacións e Intercambio Científico, 2019)
Conference report
Open AccessEn Perú un 50.35% (Año 2017) de la población total dispone de acceso a agua para el consumo humano gestionada de forma segura, mientras que, en el sector rural, este indicador llega solo al 20.75% (JMP, 2019). Por otro ... -
Asociación de la mortalidad humana con factores atmosféricos a diferentes escalas geográficas
(Asociación Interamericana de Ingeniería Sanitaria y Ambiental (AIDIS), 2021)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyHuman mortality data is often modeled using a demographic approach. This approach does not present an adequate fit model for the number of deaths with great variability. For this reason, additional social, economic and ... -
Desigualdades de acceso al agua y al saneamiento según quintiles de riqueza: un análisis de tendencias en datos compositivos
(Universidad Católica de Manizales, 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyLas desigualdades del acceso de la población a niveles de servicio de agua y saneamiento, han sido muy discutidas en la literatura. Los niveles de servicio con los cuales se generan las tendencias temporales suman 100%, ... -
Modelling hourly spatio-temporal PM2.5 concentration in wildfire scenarios using dynamic linear models
(2020-09)
Article
Open AccessParticulate matter with aerodynamic diameter < 2.5 μm (PM2.5) is one of the main pollutants generated in wildfire events with negative impacts on human health. In research involving wildfires and air quality, it is common ... -
Influence of atmospheric parameters on human mortality data at different geographical levels
(Elsevier, 2021-03)
Article
Open AccessHuman mortality data are often modeled using a demographic approach as a function of time. This approach does not present an adequate fit model for the number of deaths with great variability. For this reason, additional ... -
Child mortality levels and trends: a new compositional approach
(2020-07)
Article
Open AccessBackground: Trend analysis of child mortality is vital to evaluate countries’ progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goal on health (SDG 3). However, strictly speaking, child mortality data are probabilities, ... -
Decision analysis for sustainable development: the case of renewable energy planning under uncertainty
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
Article
Open AccessMulti-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods are increasingly used to aid decision-making for sustainable development. However, although uncertainty is present in all decision environments, dealing with incomplete and ... -
A techno-economic optimization model of a biomass-based CCHP/heat pump system under evolving climate conditions
(Elsevier, 2020-08-07)
Article
Open AccessAn innovative modelling approach for the design of biomass-based, solar-assisted combined cooling, heating, and power (CCHP) and heat pump (HP) systems for various climate scenarios is proposed in this work. The modelling ...
