This article focuses on a visualization of tropical cyclone track data occurring over a 40- year period (1970–2010) and their relationship with (extremely) heavy rainfall reported by 88 Central American weather stations. The ...

Daily precipitation concentration in the Amazon basin (AB) is characterized using concentration index (CI), which is computed from HYBAM Observed Precipitation (HOP) data set, for 1980–2009 period. The ability of four ...

In this study, we use convection-permitting high resolution (3 km) simulations to quantify and analyse the water budget, precipitation efficiency and water sources of 100 intense Mediterranean cyclones. To this end, we ...

Among the weather phenomena, rainfall is difficult to forecast, despite the theoretical and technical challenges inherently related to its prediction, its impact in economic and everyday activities, clearly justify its ...

Moisture sensitive tree ring chronologies of Centrolobium microchaete have been developed from seasonally dry forests in the southern Amazon Basin and used to reconstruct wet season rainfall totals from 1799 to 2012, adding ...
