Abstract
dc.description.abstract
This paper provides an updated review of the most relevant scientific literature related to
the hydroclimate of the Andes. The Andes, the longest cordillera in the world, faces major
challenges regarding climate variability and climate change, which impose several threats
to sustainable development, including water supply and the sustainability of ecosystem
services. This review focuses on hydroclimate variability of the Andes at a sub-continental
scale. The annual water cycle and long-term water balance along the Andes are addressed
first, followed by the examination of the effects of orography on convective and frontal
precipitation through the study of precipitation gradients in the tropical, subtropical and
extratropical Andes. In addition, a review is presented of the current scientific literature on
the climate variability in the Andes at different timescales. Finally, open research questions
are presented in the last section of this article.
