Approximately 10 years ago, convection‐permitting regional climate models (CPRCMs)
emerged as a promising computationally affordable tool to produce fine resolution (1–4 km) …

Owing to the extraordinary latitudinal extent, a strong orographic variability with very high
mountain tops, and the presence of deep valleys and steep slopes, the Andes and the …

Accurate precipitation (P) short-term forecasts are important for engineering studies and
water allocation. This study evaluated a method for bias correction of the Numerical Weather …

Regional climate models (RCMs) are widely used to assess future impacts associated with
climate change at regional and local scales. RCMs must represent relevant climate …

Ecuador is likely to experience significant impacts associated with future changes in climate,
but future projections for this region are challenging due to the complex topography and a …

The present study explores the cloud microphysics (MPs) impact on the simulation of two
convective rainfall events (CREs) over the complex topography of Andes mountains, using …

The characteristics of the precipitation under the influence of topography and surface wind
flow are investigated over South America. Here the precipitating cloud systems (PCSs) are …

The present study was aimed at analysing the main atmospheric dynamic mechanisms
associated with the occurrence of intense rainfall events above the Huancayo observatory …

Information on the vertical structure of rain, especially near the surface is important for
accurate quantitative precipitation estimation from weather and space-borne radars. In the …

The study evaluated the sensitivity of the precipitation forecast in the central Andes of Peru
of Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to change the planetary boundary layer …
