Simulation of Mesoscale Convective Systems near the Tropical Andes: Insights from Convection-Permitting Simulations of Two Events

Abstract: <p>Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs) are associated with an important fraction of total precipitation in the vicinity of the Tropical Andes, and are related to high impact weather events and extreme rainfall.  Important ingredients include input of moisture and synoptic conditions particular of each location, depending on the regional scale circulation and the local topography.  Convection-Permitting (CP) simulations can help to better describe events with MCSs, includ… Show more
