New
In this section of the web site we are going to introduce scientific articles, computer applications, manuals, melodies, landscapes, photos, news and any other item new and interesting to oasification.
From here we encourage you to let us know your ideas, experiences and messages sending an email to oasification@oasification.com.
It's our intention to include new material periodically. When we have it we will make it available for download.
Soon we will implement the possibility to report of our news automatically for the people who request for it.
MAUCO - Excel application Oasification News No. 1
Chilean forest engineers Mauricio Lemus Vera and Guillermo Navarro Vidal have developed an interesting Excel application, called MAUCO, to design infiltration trenches and deviation channels.
Gently, they wish to make available for free their excellent work in this web site, and we thank them for it.
The application, in Spanish, consists in a spreadsheet (Mauco.xls 229 KB) with its user manual (Manual de Mauco.pdf 822 KB).
Oasification News No. 2
- Web site translated to English.
- MODIPÉ 20 IE, bilingual versión (English-Spanish) of the program MODIPÉ, available for free in downloads.
- INTRODUCING MODIPE, a brief explanatory document in English about the model.
- Caravana del desierto.mp3, a musical piece that evokes the slow and hard walking across the desert . It´s also free!.
Oasification News No. 3
- NUMCUR 10 IE, program for easy selection of curve numbers or estimation of a progressive series of curve numbers, in bilingual version (English-Spanish).
Oasification News No. 4
- Navigation menu item called "Infiltration" with an extended article on the subject, published in the volume 20 of the magazine Ecología (in Spanish): "Infiltración en Ecología.pdf".
