Paracas dust storms: sources, trajectories and associated meteorological conditions
(Elsevier, 2017)
Dust storms that develop along the Pisco-Ica desert in Southern Peru, locally known as "Paracas" winds have ecological, health and economic repercussions. Here we identify dust sources through MODIS (Moderate Resolution ...
Surface indices of wind, stability, and turbulence at a highly polluted urban site in Santiago, Chile, and their relationship with nocturnal particulate matter concentrations
(Taiwan Association for Aerosol Research, 2017)
The local meteorological factors of the cold season nocturnal particulate matter (PM) air quality problem in the western
urban area of Santiago City are documented and analyzed by means of three years of multi-level ...
A climatology of cutoff lows in the Southern Hemisphere
(2005)
The occurrence of cutoff lows (COLs) in the Southern Hemisphere at 500 hPa is
studied for a 31-year period using atmospheric NCEP-NCAR reanalysis. The
methodology combines objective detection and tracking for cyclonic ...
Precipitation and circulation covariability in the extratropics
(2006-09)
Extratropical precipitation is primarily produced by cold and warm fronts associated with surface cyclones and upper-level troughs. The growth of these midlatitude storms is partially controlled by the dry baroclinicity ...
Meteorological observations on the northern Chilean coast during VOCALS-REx
(2013)
Surface coastal observations from two automatic
weather stations at Paposo ( 25 S) and radiosonde observations
at Paposo and Iquique ( 20 S) were carried out
during VOCALS-REx (VAMOS Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-
Land Study ...
Using commercial aircraft meteorological data to assess the heat budget of the convective boundary layer over the Santiago valley in central Chile
(Springer, 2022)
The World Meteorological Organization Aircraft Meteorological Data Relay (AMDAR) programme refers to meteorological data gathered by commercial aircraft and made available to weather services. It has become a major source ...
The origin of Asian monsoons: a modelling perspective
(Copernicus Gesellschaft MHB, 2020)
The Cenozoic inception and development of the Asian monsoons remain unclear and have generated much debate, as several hypotheses regarding circulation patterns at work in Asia during the Eocene have been proposed in the ...
Volcanic emissions and atmospheric pollution: a study of nanoparticles
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2020)
