Díaz, Alvaro; Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio (2003-10-01)Regional and large-scale circulation anomalies associated with periods of enhanced and reduced convective cloudiness over Uruguay are studied for austral spring and summer, when rainfall associated with deep convection is ...

Schulz, N.; Boisier, J. P.; Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio (Royal Meteorological Society, 2011-06-12)Long-term precipitation records from the extremely arid northern coast of Chile (18 °S–30 °S) were analysed to assess changes occurring at different time scales. Results are presented here along with a discussion on changes ...

Rutllant Costa, José; Fuenzalida Ponce, Humberto; Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio (AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION, 2003)The DICLIMA field experiment was designed to test and quantify the hypothesis of an afternoon enhancement of the coastal subsidence in the extremely arid northern Chile because of solar heating over the west slope of the ...

Garreaud Salazar, René; Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio (2001-06-15)Altiplano, a semiarid, high-level plateau entrenched in the central Andes. On the interannual timescale, Altiplano rainfall exhibits pronounced fluctuations between drought and very wet conditions, with subsequent impacts ...

Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio (AMER METEOROLOGICAL SOC, 1989-04)The functioning of the Southern Oscillation (SO) in the South American sector is analyzed with particular emphasis on the upper-air circulation anomalies. Throughout the year, but especially during austral summer, the ...

Schulz, Natalie; Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio; Richter, Michael (BOSS DRUCK MEDIEN GMBH, 2011)Along the hyper-arid Chilean coastal desert between 30 S and 18 S the Loma vegetation undergoes a gradual transition from open shrubland to small isolated areas of a scarce plant cover. Floristic and physiognomic features ...

Rosenbluth López, Benjamín; Fuenzalida Ponce, Humberto; Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio (1997)Results from a critical appraisal of surface mean air temperature in Chile and Argentina and extreme air temperature in Chile during the present century are presented. Observations were homogenized to produce a set of ...

Montecinos, Aldo; Díaz, Álvaro; Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio (2000-02-15)The seasonality of the simultaneous relationship between tropical Pacific SST and rainfall, as well as rainfall predictability one season in advance in subtropical South America (258–408S), is studied using different ...

Montecinos, Aldo; Aceituno Gutiérrez, Patricio (2003-01-15)The seasonality of the ENSO–rainfall relationship in central Chile (308–418S) and associated circulation anomalies are studied using correlation and compositing techniques. During El Nin˜o episodes there is a tendency for ...
