El cambio climático y sus posibles efectos en la biodiversidad
(1994)En este artículo, se describen las características del cambio climático y sus posibles efectos en la biodiversidad. No obstante, es importante tener presente que el cambio climático puede afectar tambien la salud humana y ... -
Variabilidad espacial y temporal de la precipitación lluviosa en Paraguay
(1994)The spatial and temporal rainfall distributions over Paraguay are analyzed. Twenty one stations distributed over the country, most of them with records longer than 30 years, are used. For each one, the average monthly and ... -
Anomalías observadas en la atmósfera libre sobre Paraguay durante los eventos ENOS de 1986-1987 y 1991-1992
(1995)The anomalies of temperature, humidity, and wind in the troposphere and lower stratosphere over Paraguay are analyzed during the El Niño events of 1986-1987 and 1991-1992 and La Niña of 1988. The results do not agree fully ... -
Description of the Martian Polar Cap Breeze
(1995)The surface temperature of the Martian polar caps is about 148 K (frost point temperature of CO2 at a surface pressure of about 6 hPa), with the "desert" (frost-free) areas adjacent to the polar caps having much greater ... -

(1996)The synoptic situation from 29 October to 3 November 1995, which caused a temporal over Costa Rica, is analyzed. The free atmosphere maps show the persistence of a cyclonic vortex, during almost all the duration of the ... -
A comparative study of hurricanes Fifi (1974) and Greta (1978) and their associated rainfall distributions over central America
(1996)A comparative study of hurricanes Fifi (1974), which had similar tracks but produced different rainfall distributions over Central America, was made. It was found that Fifia was much rainier in spite of being much less ... -
The Central American temporal: A long–lived tropical rain–producing system
(1996)The general characteristics of the Central American temporal are described, as well as the synoptic conditions which produce it. As an example. the synoptic situation and the rainfall distribution over Costa Rica associated ... -
Distribución espacio-temporal de la radiación solar neta en superficie sobre el trópico americano del Hemisferio Norte
(1996)The results of Pinker and Laszlo's physical model for solar radiation budget are used in order to analize the daily net surface solar radiation (Q*) on tropical regions of the Northern lkmisphere of the Americas. The values ... -
