Variability of the Southeast Pacific Subtropical Anticyclone and its impact on sea surface temperature off north-central Chile Variabilidad del Anticiclón Subtropical del Pacífico Sudeste y su impacto sobre la temperatura superficial del mar frente a la costa centro-norte de Chile
TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of correlation between air pressure at sea level and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) and Southern Annular Mode (SAM) indices established that, at the interdecadal scale, these oscillations explained 49% and 40% of the variance, respectively; however, SAM had a time lag of six years to explain this variance.

Caracterización hidrográfica del estuario del río Valdivia, centro-sur de Chile
TL;DR: In this paper, hydrographic measurements of temperature and salinity taken during an annual seasonal cycle and the analysis of the main forcings (tide, river flow, wind and solar radiation) explain the variability and its changes in vertical stratification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal Variability of Upwelling off Central-Southern Chile
TL;DR: A cross-correlation analysis showed a decrease of SST follow the alongshore SSW with a lag of 2 days in the months favorable to the upwelling, indicating that there is a large advection of waters from the south that could be related to the greater volume of subantarctic water present in the zone.

Reproductive patterns of mussel Perumytilus purpuratus (Bivalvia: Mytilidae), along the Chilean coast: Effects caused by climate change?
Pablo A. Oyarzún,Jorge E. Toro,José Garcés-Vargas,Claudia Alvarado,Ricardo Guiñez,Roberto Jaramillo,Carolina Briones,Bernardita Campos +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that latitude does not have an effect on the development stage, but it does on the spawning date, and there is a relationship between the reproductive cycles and temperature fluctuations.

TL;DR: The first volume of the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report as mentioned in this paper was published in 2007 and covers several topics including the extensive range of observations now available for the atmosphere and surface, changes in sea level, assesses the paleoclimatic perspective, climate change causes both natural and anthropogenic, and climate models for projections of global climate.

The Definition of El Niño.
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the meaning of the term "El Nino" and how it has changed in time is given, and it is suggested that an El Nino can be said to occur if 5-month running mean of sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the Nino 3.4 region (5°N-5°S, 120°-170°W) exceed 0.4°C for 6 months or more.
