On the Validation of the Simulation of Early Season Precipitation on the Island of Puerto Rico Using a Mesoscale Atmospheric Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The ability of a mesoscale atmospheric model to reproduce the spatial distribution of the precipitation of the Caribbean island of Puerto Rico during an early rainfall season month (April) is evaluated in this paper, taking ...
On the Hydrometeorological Changes of a Tropical Water Basin in the Caribbean and Its Sensitivity to Midterm Changes in Regional Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: lobal climate change manifests in the Caribbean basin as increased SSTs, precipitation anomalies, and changes in atmospheric moisture content, among other effects. These regional climate changes have a profound impact on ...
Climate Impacts of Land-Cover and Land-Use Changes in Tropical Islands under Conditions of Global Climate Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: and-cover and land-use (LCLU) changes have significant climate impacts in tropical coastal regions with the added complexity of occurring within the context of a warming climate. The individual and combined effects of these ...
A Land–Atmospheric Interaction Study in the Coastal Tropical City of San Juan, Puerto Rico
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper focuses on the surface?atmospheric interaction in a tropical coastal city including the validation of an atmospheric modeling and an impact study of land-cover and land-use (LCLU) changes. The Regional Atmospheric ...
