Seasonal diagnostic and temporal variability of the daily
precipitation in Argentina
Departamento de Ciencias de la Atmósfera y los Océanos-FCEyN-UBA
Olga C. Penalba, Federico Robledo
Probability of daily precipitation events
Daily percentiles Persistence of rainday and no rainday
Objectives
Analyze the annual cycle of the following properties:
Probability of daily precipitation events
Daily percentiles Persistence of rainday and no rainday
Objectives
Special interest in extreme events and very heavy
rainfall
Analyze the temporal variability of:
Data set
