Descripción
Investigation of the time variant scaling behavior of six monthly rainfall series recorded in central Argentina from 1860 to 2006 by using detrending fluctuation analysis (DFA) was performed. Changes in precipitation extremes are analyzed for several regions of Argentina using long-term monthly rainfall data (back to 1860) recorded by rain gauges extended for more than 10 latitude-degrees, from subtropical regions until 39 ° S. A moving window was employed in order to analyze statistical changes. Three different types of time patterns can be distinguished: (i) eastern stations show visible crossovers between persistent and random behavior; (ii) north-western stations are characterized by random behavior approximately at any time and do not present visible crossovers between different types of scaling behaviors; (iii) one station (i.e. Corrientes) shows a peculiar pattern, since it is characterized by several crossovers from persistent to random behavior, indicating a more fluctuating time dynamics without a well defined trend. The obtained results can be interpreted in the context of the climatological conditions of Central Argentina, which is characterized by the continental heat low in the northwest region, by the subtropical rainforest in the eastern provinces and by a transition zone (from maritime to continental regime) fluctuating with the South Atlantic high-pressure cell.
