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; Rutllant Costa, José; Fuenzalida, Humberto (2002-01)The typical conditions of the eastern boundary of the subtropical anticyclone [e.g., well-defined marine boundary layer (MBL), equatorward low-level flow] that prevail along the mountainous west coast of subtropical South ...

Vargas Easton, Víctor; Pantoja, Silvio; Rutllant Costa, José; Lange, Carina; Ortlieb, Luc (2007)Secular trends in coastal upwelling proxies from a sediment record at 23 degrees S encompassing 250 years reveal two distinct stages separated by a transition period between AD 1820 and 1878. Persistent interdecadal ...

Ortega, Cristina; Vargas Easton, Víctor; Rutllant Costa, José; Jackson Squella, Donald; Méndez Melgar, César (University of Washington. Published by Elsevier Inc., 2012-09-08)Water availability in the semiarid western coast of Chile (30–32°S) is conditioned by high interannual precipitation variability, reflecting the transition between arid subtropical and moist mid-latitude climates in the ...

Aguirre Galaz, María Catalina; Garreaud Salazar, René; Rutllant Costa, José (Elsevier, 2014)The effect of the high frequency (synoptic) variability of wind and heat fluxes upon the surface ocean off south-central Chile (west coast of South America) is investigated using a regional ocean model. We focus our ...
