Circulation and stratification drivers during the summer season in the upwelling bay of Paracas (Peru): A modelling study
(Elsevier, 2023)
The circulation and stratification in the shallow semi-enclosed bay of Paracas located downstream of the main upwelling cell off the Peruvian coast were studied during the summer season using a regional circulation model ...
Extreme rainfall, hydric conditions and associated atmospheric circulation in the southern la Plata Basin
(Inter-Research, 2016-05)
The interaction between land surface and atmosphere plays an important role in the climate system. Soil-atmosphere feedback mechanisms are analyzed by calculating the hydric condition (HC) of the soil from the water balance. ...
Compound temperature and precipitation extreme events in southern South America: Associated atmospheric circulation, and simulations by a multi-RCM ensemble
(Inter-Research, 2016-05)
In this paper we analyse the joint distribution of extreme temperature and heavy precipitation events in southern South America during 1961-2000, and the predominant atmospheric circulation associated with the occurrence ...
Atmospheric Circulation Anomalies during Episodes of Enhanced and Reduced Convective Cloudiness over Uruguay
(2003-10-01)
Regional and large-scale circulation anomalies associated with periods of enhanced and reduced convective
cloudiness over Uruguay are studied for austral spring and summer, when rainfall associated with deep convection
is ...
Storyline description of Southern Hemisphere midlatitude circulation and precipitation response to greenhouse gas forcing
(Springer, 2020-05)
As evidence of climate change strengthens, knowledge of its regional implications becomes an urgent need for decision making. Current understanding of regional precipitation changes is substantially limited by our understanding ...
Summertime precipitation extremes and the influence of atmospheric flows on the western slopes of the southern Andes of Perú
(John Wiley and Sons, 2022)
Although climatologically dry, the western slopes of the southern Andes of Peru (WSA) can experience precipitation extremes (PEs) during the summer (December–February) resulting in great economic and human losses. Generally, ...
Radiative properties of clouds over a tropical Bolivian glacier: seasonal variations and relationship with regional atmospheric circulation
(Royal Meteorological Society, 2016-06-30)
At low latitudes, strong seasonal changes in cloud cover and precipitation largely control the mass balance of glaciers. Measurements of shortwave and longwave radiation fluxes reaching Zongo glacier, Bolivia (16∘S, 5060 ...
Relationship between large-scale atmospheric circulation and interannual variability of extreme events of sea ice in the Antarctic Dipole
(Sociedade Brasileira de MeteorologiaFlorianópolis, 2013)
The Antarctic sea ice plays an important role in the global climate system due to its
high albedo, low thermal conductivity, influence on the position of the storrn tracks, forrning
water masses and air masses. Some ...
Rainfall hotspots over the southern tropical Andes: spatial distribution, rainfall intensity, and relations with large‐scale atmospheric circulation
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2015-05)
The Andes/Amazon transition is among the rainiest regions of the world and the interactions between large‐scale circulation and the topography that determine its complex rainfall distribution remain poorly known. This work ...
