    Performance of a multi-RCM ensemble for South Eastern South America

    The ability of four regional climate models to reproduce the present-day South American climate is examined with emphasis on La Plata Basin. Models were integrated for the period 1991–2000 with initial and lat...

    CHAC: a weather pattern classification system for regional climate downscaling of daily precipitation

    A weather pattern clustering method is applied and calibrated to Argentinean daily weather stations in order to predict daily precipitation data. The clustering technique is based on k-means and is applied to ...

    Downscaling extreme month-long anomalies in southern South America

    We investigate the performance of one stretched-grid atmospheric global model, five different regional climate models and a statistical downscaling technique in simulating 3 months (January 1971, November 1986...

    Role of high- and low-frequency winds and wave reflection in the onset, growth and termination of the 1997–1998 El Niño

    The present study aims at studying the role played by high-frequency wind variability, wave reflection and easterly wind anomalies in the western Pacific in the onset, growth and termination phases of the 199...

    Propagation and reflection of long equatorial waves in the Indian Ocean from TOPEX/POSEIDON data during the 1993–1998 period

     The present study offers a description of long equatorial wave propagation and reflection in the Indian Ocean as observed by the TOPEX/POSEIDON satellite. The equatorial longwave amplitudes are computed from ...

    The Trident Pacific model. Part 1: simulating surface ocean currents with a linear model during the 1993–1998 TOPEX/POSEIDON period

     Zonal advection by long equatorial waves has been shown to be an important process in the evolution of sea surface temperature in the central Pacific on ENSO time scales. The present study aims at investigati...

    Long equatorial wave reflection in the Pacific Ocean from TOPEX/POSEIDON data during the 1992–1998 period

     The TOPEX/POSEIDON sea level data have been shown to observe the sea surface height variability accurately over the globe and, more particularly, in the tropical Pacific, core region of the El Niño/Southern O...
