Rainfall along the coast of Peru during strong El Niño events
(Royal Meteorological Society, 2017-09-26)
While, climatologically, most areas of the Peruvian Pacific region do not experience precipitation, they can be affected by heavy rain and flooding during strong El Niño events with severe socio-economic impacts. Only four ...
