However, there is also a tendency for positive rainfall anomalies during some El Nino years, such as 1972/73. Broadly inverse variations of rainfall are evident in Northem and Southem Amazonia. It has been observed that some stations in Amazonia show abundant rainfall on the year before the peak of El Nino, while others show large negative departures on the beginning of summer while large positive rainfall anomalies during the fall season, of the El Nino year. In addition, strong El Nino events have also been linked to events of smoke clouds, consequence of the biomass buming during an anomalously long dry season, affecting the population of the main cities in Amazonia. %N 3 %T On the associations between hydrometeorological conditions in Amazonia and the extremes of the Southern Oscillation %K Amazonia, interannual variability, El Nino, rainfall anomalies. %@secondarytype PRE PI %@group DMD-INPE-MCT-BR %@group DMA-INPE-MCT-BR %@e-mailaddress fabia@cptec.inpe.br %@copyholder SID/SCD %@secondarykey INPE-11336-PRE/6773 %2 cptec.inpe.br/walmeida/2004/08.31.10.31.25 %@affiliation CPTEC-INPE-Cachoeira Paulista-12630-000-SP-Brasil %@language English %P 789-802 %4 cptec.inpe.br/walmeida/2004/08.31.10.31 %D 1998 %V 27 %A Marengo, Jose Antonio, %A Nobre, Carlos Afonso, %A Sampaio, Gilvan, %@area MET
