Improved seasonal prediction skill of rainfall for the Primera season in Central America
(2017)
This study explores the predictive skill of seasonal rainfall characteristics for the first rainy (and planting) season, May–June, in Central America. Statistical predictive models were built using a Model Output Statistics ...
Caribbean sea tropical cyclone occurrences in the last six decades and their impacts in central america and the caribbean islands
(2011-02-25)
The study of the tropical cyclones activity in the Caribbean (Figs. 1 & 2), and their historic characterization in the Central American region, is a basic element to mitigate their impact over different regions of the ...
Discrete Rainfall Predictability Using El Niño/Southern Oscillation Interaction
(2013-01-01)
The objective of the study was to determine the probability of occurrence of wet or dry season events, based on the phase of El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon using multinomial logit regression models. The ...
Modelos estadísticos para la interacción océano-atmósfera
(2020)
La presente investigación tiene como objetivo modelar la interacción del océano -atmósfera
utilizando la relación entre la Oscilación del Sur y los eventos El Niño -La Niña como un
sistema de ...

(2021)
Introducción: La Cruz está localizada en el noroeste de
Costa Rica, y está caracterizada por una estación seca
bien definida y un clima tropical seco. Este cantón en los
últimos 45 años ha reportado impactos de eventos ...
Observed Changes (1970-1999) in Extreme Hydroclimatic Events in Central America
(2018-04-20)
Previous studies have shown that most of Central America has been experiencing warming trends during the last 30-50 years, while precipitation annual totals have not changed much. Warming alone can exacerbate the effects ...
A Multivariate Regression Model Between the October Rainfall Anomalies in Central America and the Tropical Pacific and Atlantic Ocean
(1999-11)
Principal Component Analysis was used to identity common anomaly patterns amongst 72 rainfall gauge stations in Central America during October, in order to identify stations to from October Rainfall Indices. October was ...
Predicción estacional para ASO de eventos extremos y días con precipitación sobre las vertientes Pacífico y Caribe de América Central, utilizando análisis de correlación canónica
Seasonal prediction of extreme precipitation events, and frequency of rainy days for ASO over the
Pacific and Caribbean slopes of Central America using Canonical Correlation Analysis
Models were generated based on Canonical Correlation Analysis for prediction of extreme precipitation events during August-September-October (ASO), using as predictor the Sea Surface Temperature (SST) due to the hydrological ...
Comparación de parámetros de valor extremo de la distribución generalizada asociada a eventos de precipitación extrema en América Central
(2020)
Se utilizó la distribución de valor extremo generalizada (DVEG) para modelar los eventos de lluvia extrema
en América Central, durante 30 años, a partir de 1971. Los datos consistieron en registros de precipitaciones
diarias ...
Observed (1970-1999) climate variability in Central America using a high-resolution meteorological dataset with potential for climate change studies
(2015-10)
Average temperature (Tavg) data from stations and station-based gridded datasets at 50 km resolution were
used to provide a high-resolution (5 km grid) dataset for Central America from 1970 to 1999. The procedure
used ...
