             abstract = "Brazil Malvinas Confluence (BMC) region is one of the most 
                         energetics of the world and presents a high variability. The 
                         latitude of the confluence is well marked by the annual cycle: it 
                         is found more to the north during the austral winter and more to 
                         the south in the austral summer. Many studies were made about the 
                         variability of BMC and its possible forcing mechanisms. Thus, the 
                         aim of this study is to better understand the confluence 
                         variability and its relation to wind stress forcing in different 
                         locations. The latitude of BC separation from the coast was used 
                         as a proxy of BMC. It was obtained through the interception point 
                         between 18ºC isotherm and 1000 m isobath. SST data was obtained 
                         from NOAA OISSTv2 and the zonal wind pseudostress data was 
                         extracted from CCMP project of NASA/GSFC/NOAA. The BC separation 
                         latitude presents a pronounced southward trend of 0.43º/year 
                         (±0,24), during the analyzed period. Both wind pseudostress series 
                         present negative trends too: - 2.4 m²s-2/year (±0,96) in CBM 
                         region and 0.36 m²s-2/year without significance in Drake Passage. 
                         The wavelet analysis was used for each time series, and the XWT 
                         and WTC was performed using the zonal wind pseudostress for the 
                         BMC and Drake Passage region with the BC separation latitude. The 
                         winds in BMC region could be related directly to the local annual 
                         variation, and the winds in Drake Passage are responsible for the 
                         interannual variation, and, after 2004, a significant semiannual 
                         variation.",
