abstract = "Wavelet transform (WT) and spectral analysis have been analyzed to
study the behavior of synoptic to intraseasonal variations in
convecive precipitation over South America. Convective
precipitation data derived from the reanalysis of National Center
for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) have been analyzed over four
approximately 9°-square areas between the latitudes 4.5°N and
31.5°S, and longitudes 54°-45°W. Spectral analysis could only
supply frequency characteristics, whereas WT applied to the
time-series allowed not only to detect the features in frequency
space, but also their temporal localization. As many periodic
events in the atmosphere are intermittent, WT is used to identify
the time-localization of these periodic events.",
