Cerón, Wilmar Loaiza; Andreoli, Rita Valéria; Kayano, Mary Toshie; Souza, Rodrigo Augusto Ferreira de; Jones, Charles; Carvalho, Leila M.V.This study examines the influence of the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) on the Choco Low-level Jet (CJ) variations during the 1983-2016 period. Considering the September-November (SON) 925 hPa zonal wind index in the CJ core, a significant breakpoint occurs in 1997 with larger values after 1997. The changes in the CJ and Caribbean Low-Level Jet (CLLJ), and their related ocean-atmospheric patterns and i...
Projections of climate change effects on discharge and inundation in the Amazon...
Sorribas, Mino Viana; Paiva, Rodrigo C. D.; Melack, John M.; Bravo, Juan Martin; Jones, Charles; Carvalho, Leila; Beighley, Edward; Forsberg, BruceClimate change and its effects on the hydrologic regime of the Amazon basin can impact biogeochemical processes, transportation, flood vulnerability, fisheries and hydropower generation. We examined projections of climate change on discharge and inundation extent in the Amazon basin using the regional hydrological model MGB-IPH with 1-dimensional river hydraulic and water storage simulation in floodplains. Futu...
