Relations Among Duration of the El Niño Events, Tropical Atlantic Conditions and Rainfall Over Ceará
Abstract This paper investigates how El Niño events of different durations affect the atmospheric circulation over the Tropical North Atlantic (TNA) region, what are the consequences of these alterations in the sea surface temperature (SST) interannual variability and what are the responses, in term...
