B A Frio Cálido 500 hPa Las perturbaciones de latitudes medias (ver clase anterior) también transportan calor hacia latitudes altas, continuando el proceso de transferencia de calor que realiza la atmósfera. Precipitación en latitudes medias
26
El mecanismo más simple es la saturación de vapor de agua, y posterior formación de partículas de precipitación, en flujos estables ladera arriba al barlovento de la topografía. Precipitación Orografíca (latitudes medias)
27
De todas las variables probados, es el flujo de vapor de agua en la dirección zonal (hacia la Cordillera) a 2500 m (un poco arriba del nivel promedio de congelamiento) que tiene la mejor correlación (50%) con precipitación. Falvey and Garreaud 2007
