• Abstract

  Northeast Brazil is vulnerable to climate variability and climate change as water play an important societal and economic role in that region. Northeast Brazil precipitation presents a significant space and time variability and, in current climate, is characterized by a short wet season, mainly associated with southward displacement of the Intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ), during aus…

• Abstract

  During the summer and early of austral autumn, several regions of Brazil suffer periods of intense precipitation generally associated with the South Atlantic Convergence Zone (SACZ) and with the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), respectively. The SACZ acts in southeastern Brazil, northern Paraná and Central Brazil and the ITCZ mainly acts in eastern Amazon (EA) and northern Northeast…

• Abstract

  Northern Northeast Brazil (NNB) is a region with significant climate variability on the interannual to multidecadal timescales, in which extreme precipitation events may produce strong impacts. In particular, interannual variability is associated with patterns of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomalies in the tropical Atlantic and Pacific Oceans that influences moisture transport, convect…
