abstract = "Large-scale aspects of the heat and moisture budget of the South
America Monsoon System are analysed for the Austral summer during
the period from 1970 to 2000. The main objective of this work is
to make an observational analysis of such budgets, including a
composite of five El Niņo-southern oscillation events ocurred by
the period of study. For this purpose, data from the NCEP/NCAR
reanalysis and GPCP are used. Analysis of the moisture budget
showed that South America are characterized by high precipitation
which is associated with the vertically integrated moisture flux
convergence. Large changes of heat and moisture components over
South America during the composite El Niņo event is observed.
Expressive defict of rainfall over South America Monsoon region
occurs due an anomalous sinking motion and decrease of moisture
flux convergence. The precipitation deficit is followed too by a
decrease of both the atmospheric heating and advection of heat.",
