(Springer, 2009)At times when attention on climate issues is strongly focused on the assessment of potential impacts of future climate change due to the intensification of the planetary greenhouse effect, it is perhaps pertinent to look ...
-
(Springer, 2016)The quality of ground-based astronomical observations is significantly affected by local atmospheric conditions, and the search for the best sites has led to the construction of observatories at increasingly remote locations, ...

(Universidad de ChileCyberDocs, 2010)El cálculo de la trayectoria de partículas en la atmósfera es una actividad abordada desde hace mucho tiempo, tomando en cuenta un enfoque clásico del uso de los computadores, en el cual se utilizan sus recursos como ...
-
(2008)The west coast of subtropical South America is characterized by a semi-arid climate and very persistent southerly winds that often exhibit a low-level jet structure. The nearly alongshore flow forces coastal and offshore ...
-
(Springer-Verlag, 2015)Crucial aspects of a strong thermally-driven wind system in the Atacama Desert in northern Chile during the extended austral winter season (May-September) are studied using 2 years of measurement data from the Sierra Gorda ...
-
(Amer Meteorological Soc, 2020)In desert environments, intense radiative cooling of the surface during the night leads to rapid cooling of the adjacent air, resulting in a strong temperature inversion conducive to cold-air-pool formation. In this work ...
-
(American Meteorological Society, 2020)Raco is the local name given to a strong (gusts up to 17 m s(-1)), warm, and dry down-valley wind observed at the exit of the Maipo River Canyon in central Chile. Its climatology is documented based on eight years of surface ...
-
(Universidad de Chile, 2014)El rol de la cordillera de la costa en la distribución y montos de precipitación en Chile central (32°-35°S) es un aspecto que se ha mantenido hasta ahora sin estudiar. En este trabajo, se analiza de qué manera la presencia ...
-
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011-03)The use of Synthetic Aperture Radar interferometry (InSAR) in northern Chile, one of the most seismically active regions in the world, is of great importance. InSAR enables geodesists not only to accurately measure Earth's ...
-
(Wiley, 2017)The climatology of wind waves over the Southeast Pacific is analysed using a 32-year hindcast from the WaveWatch III model, complemented by satellite-derived significant wave height (SWH) and buoy measurements for validation. ...
-
(2007)Central Chile (32 degrees-35 degrees S) is a mountainous and densely populated strip of land between the South American Pacific coast and the main divide of the Andes, 5000 m in height. In this study, wintertime precipitation ...
