(2015-01-12)
Data from the Global Precipitation Climatology
Project covering Central America, the Caribbean Sea, the
eastern tropical Pacific and northern South America are used
to compute four indexes that describe characteristics ...
Some Characteristics of the Annual Precipitation Cycle in Central America and their Relationships with its Surrounding Tropical Oceans
(2002)
Usando 94 estaciones pluviométricas de registro diario, se calcularon los ciclos anuales promedio dominantes en la región centroamericana por medio del análisis de funciones ortogonales empíricas. Esto permitió estimar ...
Response of air surface temperature over Central America to oceanic climate variability indices.
(2002-12)
In this study were used 337 grid points (0.5 ° latitude x 0. 5° longitude), over Central America, from a monthly air surface temperature data set. The annual cycle, secular trend and decadal variability were removed and ...
The early rainy season in Central America: the role of thetropical North Atlantic SSTs
(2016)
We explored the relationship between the precipitation anomalies during May to June as the first peak of the rainy season in the Pacific slope of Central America, and sea surface temperature (SST) fluctuations in the ...
Tsunamis and tsunami prepardness in Costa Rica, Central America
(2005-12)
Pacific and Atlantic sides of Costa Rica there are coastal segments characterised by a flat relief, which increases the vulnerability of the coastal communities. In addition to tsunamis originating in the Middle American ...
Observed (1970–1999) climate variability in Central America using a high-resolution meteorological dataset with implication to climate change studies
(2016)
High spatial resolution of precipitation (P) and average air temperature (Tavg) datasets are ideal for determining the spatial patterns associated with large-scale atmospheric and oceanic indexes, and climate change and ...
Interconexión a nivel ciclónico-atmosférico entre el Caribe y el Pacífico Centroamericano.
(Revista de Biología Tropical, 46 sumpl. 5: 09-21, 1998, 1998)
Some atmospheric properties in the Pacific and Caribbean marine basins close to the Central American Isthmus and their possible interconnections are analized, based on a statistical study. The band describing southern ...
Clima y temperatura sub-superficial del mar en Bahía Culebra, Golfo de Papagayo, Costa Rica
(Revista Biología Tropical, 60 (2): 159-171, 2012-04)
Bahía Culebra, Golfo de Papagayo, Costa Rica is a seasonal upwelling area. To determine the relationship of climate and the subsurface temperature variability at Bahía Culebra, we analyzed nine records of sea subsurface ...
