Duration of the South America summer monsoon is increasing
Abstract We studied the interannual variability of the beginning, end and duration of South American monsoon system ( SAMS ) for the period 1956–2006. The mean beginning date was 10 October, whereas the mean end date was 6 April, and the mean duration was 174 days. The beginning of SAMS showed a ten...
