Hot and dry compound events in South America: present climate and future projections, and their association with the Pacific OceanNARA Subscribed
Compound hot and dry events can cause greater impacts than those generated by individual extreme events. Understanding the physical mechanisms that lead to their development is particularly important for an early warning. The aim of this study is to assess the ability of global climate models (GCMs) to simulate hot/dry compound events in South America (SA) during the historical period 1979–2014, in comparison with observationa...

Capability of the SMHI‐RCA4 RCM driven by the ERA‐Interim reanalysis to simulate heat waves in ArgentinaNARA Subscribed
The aim of the work was to evaluate the capability of the SMHI‐RCA4 regional climate model (RCM) driven by the ERA‐Interim reanalysis to simulate heat waves in Argentina. Firstly, we evaluated simulations of summer daily maximum temperature (Tmax) against observed data from nine stations. The model showed a warm Tmax bias at six locations and the smallest and/or negative biases were located over regions with complex topography...
Temperature extremes in the Argentina central region and their monthly relationship with the mean circulation and ENSO phasesNARA Subscribed
The aim of this study is to analyse the interannual variability of monthly climatic indices of extreme daily temperature in the central‐north region of Argentina throughout a year and its relationship with the atmospheric circulation. The impact of El Niño‐Southern Oscillation ( ENSO ) over different temperature indices throughout the year is specially analysed. Globally used indices in the 1970–2010 period are utilized for th...
Variability and trends in indices of quality‐controlled daily temperature extremes in UruguayNARA Subscribed
A database of daily extreme temperature was created for as many stations as possible for Uruguay, as far back as possible. This is the first attempt to gather all the different data sources together, perform a quality control and homogeneity assessment. We work with seven stations; it should be taken into account that Uruguay is a small country (around 177 000 km 2 ) and this represents most of the available data. There are th...
Cold and warm events over Argentina and their relationship with the ENSO phases: Risk evaluation analysisNARA Subscribed
The main purpose of this work is to provide a broad assessment of the influence of the El Niño–southern oscillation (ENSO) on the frequency of extreme temperature events throughout the year in Argentina. The cold and warm events, defined by the persistence of significant anomalies arising from the maximum and minimum temperatures, are more intense in the subtropical latitudes, north of Argentina (northeast for cold events and...
