The South American Low-Level Jet (SALLJ) is a major pathway for heat and moisture transport from tropical to subtropical South America, often triggering severe weather. This study characterizes the physical and statistical features of an exceptionally strong SALLJ event that occurred between 17 and 19 July 2026. A 20-y...

The selection of global climate models (GCMs) that represent the main features of the present climate is crucial for reducing uncertainties when assessing climate trends or driving regional climate models. Based on this premise, the main goal of this study is to assess the skill of 17 GCMs from the Coupled Model Interc...

Slow‑moving synoptic structures have been hypothesized to be a part of severe heatwave events over extended continental regions in summer, highlighting the potential impacts of the growing climate emergency associated with rising background temperatures. In this context, a slow‑moving synoptic structure from 16 to 19...

This paper reports on two sets of 22-year convection-permitting regional climate simulations conducted with the Weather Research and Forecasting model over the entirety of South America at 4-km grid spacing. The first simulation downscales the fifth-generation European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts atmosphe...
