      The Chilean Coastal Orographic Precipitation Experiment (CCOPE) was conducted during the australwinter of 2015 (May–August) in the Nahuelbuta Mountains (peak elevation 1.3 km MSL) of southern Chile(388S). CCOPE used ...
    • The influence of the Andes on cutoff lows: A modeling study 
      Garreaud Salazar, René; Fuenzalida, Humberto A. (2007)
      A cutoff low (COL) pressure system that occurred in March 2005 (late austral summer) over the subtropical southeast Pacific is examined by means of numerical simulations using the Weather and Research Forecasting (WRF) ...
    • The role of continents on the global surface temperature of an Earth-like planet 
      Meza Ravest, Alejandra Ginette (Universidad de Chile, 2024)
      La habitabilidad, es decir, la capacidad de un planeta para sostener vida, est´a intr´ınsecamente ligada a la presencia de agua l´ıquida, la cual, a su vez, depende de la temperatura. La distancia entre un planeta y su ...
    • The VAMOS Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx): goals, platforms, and field ... 
      Wood, R.; Mechoso, C. R.; Bretherton, C. S.; Weller, R. A.; Huebert, B.; Straneo, F.; Albrecht, B.

J.; Palikonda, R.; Williams, S.; Fochesatto, J.; Brioude, J.; Bower, K. N. (2011)
      The VAMOS1 Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx) was an international field program designed to make observations of poorly understood but critical components of the coupled climate system ...
    • Toward a unified view of the American Monsoon Systems 
      Vera, C.; Higgins, W.; Amador, J.; Ambrizzi, T.; Garreaud Salazar, René; Gochis, D.; Gutzler, D.; Lettenmaier, D.; Marengo, Juan José; Mechoso, C. R.; Nogues Paegle, J.; Silva Días, P. L.; Zhang, C. (AMER METEOROLOGICAL SOC, 2006-10-15)
      An important goal of the Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR) research on the American monsoon systems is to determine the sources and limits of predictability of warm season precipitation, with emphasis on ...
    • Using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model for precipitation forecasting in an Andean region ... 
      Yáñez-Morroni, Gonzalo; Gironás, Jorge; Caneo, Marta; Delgado, Rodrigo; Garreaud Salazar, René (MDPI AG, 2018)
      The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model has been successfully used in weather prediction, but its ability to simulate precipitation over areas with complex topography is not optimal. Consequently, WRF has problems ...
    • Variabilidad espacial de temperaturas nocturnas sobre la cordillera de Nahuelbuta, zona centro sur de Chile 
      González Moreira, Sergio Luis (Universidad de Chile, 2015)
      La temperatura en terrenos complejos está controlada por elementos fisiográficos y por flujos que modifican los balances locales de energía, generando fuertes contrastes de temperatura. En esta investigación se analizó un ...
    • Variabilidad interanual del transporte de humedad en el Pacífico Sur y su relación con la precipitación en Chile 
      Campos Díaz, Diego Álvaro (Universidad de Chile, 2020)
      La relación entre las precipitaciones en Chile y el fenómeno de El Niño en la escala interanual ha sido estudiada desde principios de los 1980s. Las teleconexiones tropicales, mediadas por las ondas de Rossby que se propagan ...
    • Vientos de interés para la generación eólica en la zona de Taltal: Caracterización y mecanismos 
      Gajardo Flores, Cristián Eduardo (Universidad de Chile, 2023)
      Las políticas energéticas de Chile han logrado aumentar progresivamente la matriz energética renovable. En este contexto, existe una red de estaciones meteorológicas en el norte de Chile que han permitido medir el recurso ...
