The use of the linear reservoir concept to quantify the impact of changes in land use on the hydrology of catchments in the Andes

The high Andes region of South Ecuador (The Paramo) is characterized by a cold and wet climate. Most soils of the Páramo region are Andosols and Histosols, with a very high water retention capacity that is affected irreversibly by drying.
