                         been performed since January 1995. The model used for these 
                         predictions is the CPTEC version of the COLA AGCM which was 
                         derived from the NCEP model ( Kinter et al. 1988) and includes a 
                         sophisticated biosphere model, SiB (Xue et al. 1991). The 
                         horizontal resolution of the AGCM CPTEC/COLA is T62 and there are 
                         28 levels in the vertical (Cavalcanti et al. 1995). The seasonal 
                         predictions at CPTEC, during the first 3 years, were results of an 
                         ensemble of 4 members, using 4 consecutive days as initial 
                         conditions. In 1998 there was an increase in the number of 
                         ensemble members, with the prediction based on 25 integrations. 
                         The application of boundary conditions also changed, from the use 
                         of persisted SST anomalies, to predicted SST. In the tropical 
                         Pacific, the SST is given by NCEP coupled model forecast, and in 
                         the tropical Atlantic the SST is predicted using a statistical 
                         model (Pezzi et al. 1998). Outside these regions persisted SST 
                         anomalies are used.",
