abstract = "This study investigates the spatial structure and the seasonal
occurrence of foehn wind to the east of the Andes using a fow
blocking analysis in a 20-year climate simulation. The latter was
performed by the Eta-CPTEC regional model at 50-km horizontal
resolution. This version of the model includes a cut-cell scheme
to represent topography and a fnite-volume vertical advection
scheme for dynamic variables. The results indicate that foehn wind
more frequently blows during winter and spring on the eastern
slopes of the Andes, except to the south of 37° S where it blows
at all seasons. Higher mountains of the Central Andes (27° S35° S)
and the High Plateau (15° S27° S) result in blocked foehn events,
with a weak adjustment to the geostrophic balance. On the Central
Andes, rain and snow on mountain tops may also contribute to
generate foehn wind on the eastern slopes. The results show that a
low pressure develops to the east of the Central Andes, and also
to the east of the High Plateau when foehn blows. Lower mountains
in Patagonia (to the south of 37° S) result in more frequent
non-blocked foehn event, with better adjustment to the geostrophic
balance.",
