                         Dataset as well as their ensemble mean, in simulating annual 
                         indices of extreme temperature and precipitation climate events in 
                         South America. In this first part we focus in mean values and 
                         interannual variability. Comparisons between two extreme 
                         temperature indices based on minimum temperature (Warm nights and 
                         Frost Days) and three indices of extreme precipitation (R95t, R10 
                         and Consecutive Dry Days), obtained from meteorological station 
                         during 1961-2000 and model outputs were compared. Warm nights and 
                         the extreme precipitation events, both indices relative to the 
                         local climate are the best represented by the GCMs.",
