Resumen
ESCOBAR, Gustavo Carlos Juan; REBOITA, Michelle Simôes y SOUZA, Amanda. Climatology of surface baroclinic zones in the coast of Brazil. Atmósfera [online]. 2019, vol.32, n.2, pp.129-141. ISSN 0187-6236. https://doi.org/10.20937/atm.2019.32.02.04.
This study presents the main differences between classical cold fronts, subtropical fronts and baroclinic troughs, as well as a climatology of these systems along the coast of Brazil. Regarding the seasonality of these systems, classical cold fronts are more frequent in winter followed by spring, subtropical fronts in spring, and baroclinic troughs in spring and summer. In southeastern Brazil, these three kinds of systems are responsible for about 40% (60%) of the total precipitation during the rainy (dry) season.
