Long‐term study of the occurrence and time of passage of sea breeze in São Paulo, 1960–2009

Abstract: This paper presents a simple methodology to identify sea breeze frontal passage in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, based in hourly wind direction data. Fifty‐year time series of annual frequency of sea breeze frontal passage and of its time of arrival in São Paulo are generated and related to global climate indicators and local variables. The frequency of occurrence and time of arrival of sea breeze shows long‐term oscillations in the interannual and decadal time scales. Multiple regression is used to identify … Show more

“…This could result from the interactions of the large-scale flow, sea breezes and coastal mountain ranges (Fig. 1), which contribute substantially to the wind and rainfall regimes in that region (Silva Dias et al, 1995;Perez and Silva Dias, 2017).…”

“…Thus, the annual average temperature of the Sergipe region varies between 24 and 26°C, relative humidity between 45 and 70%, and rainfall between 520 mm and 1400 mm (INMET 2016). According to the Pereira et al (2017), the Sergipe region is one of the areas with the highest solar radiation levels in Brazil with an annual average of daily global solar irradiation of 5.9 kWh m −2 day −1 . Furthermore, the Sergipe region is subjected to the action of several macroscale and mesoscale weather systems, such as the South Atlantic Subtropical Anticyclone (SASA), the North Atlantic Subtropical Anticyclone (NASA), and the Upper Tropospheric Cyclonic Vortices (UTCV), among others.…”

“…Climate projections for southeast Brazil show increasing temperature (Torres and Marengo, ; Soares et al ., ), though with an uncertainty of about the same magnitude of the expected mesoscale variability in the regional complex terrain. Other regional‐scale studies have investigated the development and occurrence of thermally driven circulations, notably the formation of sea‐breeze system, known to be associated with decreasing temperature and increasing dew point (Oliveira and Dias, ; Oliveira et al ., ; Perez and Dias, ). They highlighted the importance of the sea‐breeze in the enhancement of convective events (Freitas et al ., ).…”
