South Atlantic Convergence Zone as Rossby wave source
We investigate the possibility for the South Atlantic Convergence Zone (SACZ) to act as a Rossby wave source for global scale teleconnections. A...

South Atlantic convergence zone and ENSO occurrence in the 2000–2021 period
In this study we defined the association of SACZ episodes with ENOS phases during the 2000–2021 summer seasons, considering November to March months,...

Mechanisms controlling persistent South Atlantic Convergence Zone events on intraseasonal timescales
The South Atlantic Convergence Zone (SACZ) is an important component of the South American Monsoon System. It is characterized by a persistent...

Intertropical Convergence Zone
The chapter introduces theory for the latitudinal location of the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) followed by a description of the ITCZs in... -
The effect of Oceanic South Atlantic Convergence Zone episodes on regional SST anomalies: the roles of heat fluxes and upper-ocean dynamics
The South Atlantic Convergence Zone (SACZ) is an atmospheric system occurring in austral summer on the South America continent and sometimes...

Influence of strong South Atlantic Ocean Dipole on the Central African rainfall’s system
This study examines the interlinkages between the South Atlantic Ocean Dipole (SAOD) and Central Africa (CA) rainfall variability from June to...
-
The South Atlantic Ocean as a moisture source region and its relation with precipitation in South America
We explore the South Atlantic as a moisture source for South America and its relationship with the precipitation variability in southeastern South...
-
Social and environmental vulnerability in Southeast Brazil associated with the South Atlantic Convergence Zone
The South Atlantic Convergence Zone (SACZ) is an atmospheric phenomenon, typical of summertime, in which a band of nebulosity may cause intense or...

Response of Indian Ocean intertropical convergence zone to southern Indian Ocean dipole
In this study, we discuss the influence of the Southern Indian Ocean Dipole (SIOD) on the location variation of the Intertropical Convergence Zone...

The importance of the transient variability for the warm-season Gulf Stream convergence zone
The Gulf Stream anchors a notable time-mean convergence zone during warm seasons, which produces strong precipitation and huge latent heat release in...

The Relationship between Magmatic and Tectonic Processes in the Formation of the Oceanic Crust to the South of the Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone (North Atlantic)
AbstractThis article presents new data on the structure and relationship of tectonic and magmatic processes during the formation of the Mid-Atlantic...

Atlantic-Pacific influence on western U.S. hydroclimate and water resources
The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in the tropical Pacific Ocean is an important driver of winter precipitation variability over western North...

Changes in extreme wave events in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean
The southwestern South Atlantic (SWSA) has faced several extreme events that caused coastal and ocean hazards associated with high waves. This study...

Characterization of intertropical convergence zone using SAPHIR/Megha-Tropiques satellite brightness temperature data
The intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) is a region encircling the globe near the equator where the surface trade winds of both the hemispheres...

Tectonic Structure and Evolution of the Lithosphere in the Near-Antarctic Part of the South Atlantic
AbstractBased on an analysis of global digital models, the distribution of fracture zones of the oceanic crust, global and regional models of...

Tropical Atlantic Variations
Tropical Atlantic Ocean is the smallest of the three tropical ocean basins. However, it has many distinct types of variations that manifest beyond... -
Inconsistent Atlantic Links to Precipitation Extremes over the Humid Tropics
This study investigates extreme wet and dry conditions over the humid tropics and their connections to the variability of the tropical ocean basins...

Performance of CMIP6 models over South America
Assessing the performance of global climate models in the present is essential to attribute confidence to their future projections. This work aims to...
