Impact of New Solar Radiation Parameterization in the Eta Model on the Simulation of Summer Climate over South America
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The regional Eta workstation (WS) model with horizontal resolution of 40 km has been integrated over South America for January 2003. The NCEP?DOE Reanalysis II was used for initial and lateral boundary conditions. The ...
Seasonal-to-Decadal Predictability and Prediction of South American Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The dynamical basis for seasonal to decadal climate predictions and predictability over South America is reviewed. It is shown that, while global tropical SSTs affect both predictability and predictions over South America, ...
Observed Trends in Indices of Daily Temperature Extremes in South America 1960–2000
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A workshop on enhancing climate change indices in South America was held in Maceió, Brazil, in August 2004. Scientists from eight southern countries brought daily climatological data from their region for a meticulous ...
Trends in Total and Extreme South American Rainfall in 1960–2000 and Links with Sea Surface Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A weeklong workshop in Brazil in August 2004 provided the opportunity for 28 scientists from southern South America to examine daily rainfall observations to determine changes in both total and extreme rainfall. Twelve ...
