Human activities are highly dependent on climatic conditions. Rainfall in particular is crucial for agriculture and availability of water resources. Nonetheless, extreme rainfall events, as well as prolonged periods with little or no rainfall, may have deep economic and societal impacts and lead to the loss of lives. In the Tropics, the Hadley circulation plays a key role in controlling p…
Intense precipitation is a triggering factor of dangerous hydrological and geological events, such as floods, erosion and mass movements. Frequently, such events are responsible for economic and social losses. Therefore, the study of the relationship between rainfall and the occurrence of this kind of event is key. Since intense rainfall is a ruling element for dangerous events to occur, …
In the Tropics, the Hadley circulation plays a key role in controlling precipitation patterns, since it is related to the position of the ITCZ, which is also a main component of the South America Monsoon System (SAMS). The position of the ITCZ over the ocean is locked to the sea surface temperature patterns and the net northward heat transport in the Atlantic ocean, by the meridional over…
