A detailed analysis in a monthly basis of the correlation between a NAO index and the precipitation for peninsular Spain is made. The NAO index is calculated by means of Lisbon and Reykjavik sea surface pressure series. The monthly series of precipitation of 41 Spanish observatories for the period 1900-1994 are used. The results allow to distinguish four groups of months: (1) From October to March, with high negative correlation between the NAO index and the precipitation in the centre and the Southwest of peninsular Spain ‐this permits to regionalize the country into three regions; (2) April and May with less dependence of precipitation from NAO index; (3) the summer (June, July and August) without NAO signal; and (4) September, a transitional month between the summer and the months with clear NAO signal.

The objective weather-type system of Synoptic Objective Processes (PSO) by Fernandez y Diaz (2003), based on surface atmospheric pressure and 500 hPa topography according their temporal evolution along 3 days, has been applied to the Peninsular Spain and Balearic Islands. The advantages of this classification respect to the subjective ones and its capacity to reflect suitably the weather-types influencing over the study area in fall are exposed. The synoptic diversity of the area during the months of September and October are summarized by means of 20 PSOs. Their frequency and return period are calculated. The features of each PSO are put in relation with the probability of rain ant its daily mean amount.

The analysis of daily precipitation has a great interest for Spain. This type of analysis is important because torrential rainfall is one of the most critical natural risk in the Iberian Mediterranean coast. In this paper the daily concentration of rainfall, by means of the Concentration Index (CI), in the province of Alicante, as well as the synoptic situation of a sample of days with heavy precipitation in the same province, are analysed. The results can be summarized as follows: 1) A high concentration of rainfall in the capital area and,

Proxy-data information obtained from manuscript documentation of Spanish historical archives is rich and detailed concerning especially rainfall regime. Different statistical treatment methodologies allow data availability for climatic analysis. One of them is calibration of proxy-data with instrumental meteorological records of rainfall. This paper presents a first proof for the case study of Barcelona in yearly resolution.

ReSUMeN Se considera el sistema socioeconomico como el sexto subsistema del sistema cli matico. Se precisa la definicion de cambio climatico, que ha de cumplir con claridad la significacion estadistica en la diferencia entre medias y/o varianzas de al menos una variable climatica a escalas temporal y espacial amplias. Se muestra la nueva realidad del calentamiento global reciente de origen antropico y la muy probable continuacion del aumento termico en las proximas decadas, aunque con incertidumbres, abogandose por la mitigacion y la adaptacion. Palabras clave: Adaptacion, cambio climatico, mitigacion, sistema climatico, variabilidad.

Este articulo presenta el analisis de la intensidad de la isla de calor urbana (ICU) de Santiago para el ano 2010. El objetivo es conocer la hora en que la ICU se manifiesta con mayor intensidad, y con ello, se modela mediante un conjunto de parametros meteorologicos. Los resultados indican que la ICU en promedio es mas intensa en verano y primavera. El maximo desarrollo de la ICU se consigue a medianoche, con diferencias medias entre 2,8 oC y 4,8 oC. La maxima anomalia termica en el orden estacional se alzo por encima de los 9 oC, tanto en verano como en primavera. Las variables explicativas de la ICU fueron la nubosidad, la humedad relativa y la presion atmosferica. Como conclusion, se puede senalar que es posible generar un sistema de pronostico de la ICU mediante la obtencion de los valores de humedad relativa, la presion atmosferica y la nubosidad, desde las predicciones sinopticas y mesoescalares.

La dimension fractal de la distribucion temporal de la precipitacion (D) es un indicador de la caracteristica de autosimilitud en la distribucion de la lluvia en diferentes intervalos temporales. Si bien en su sentido espacial ha sido ampliamente trabajado anteriormente y esta bien definido, la interpretacion del concepto de fractalidad aplicado a la distribucion temporal es abstracto. Se han calculado los valores de D en 20 observatorios de la Espana peninsular para el periodo comportado entre 1997 y 2010 a partir de valores 10-minutales. El comportamiento espacial de la dimension fractal presenta unos valores maximos en la region norte del area de estudio, siendo muy similares al sur, y unos valores minimos en el este. El Indice de Concentracion (CI) expresa el peso relativo de los dias mas lluviosos de una serie en el total de la precipitacion acumulada de esa serie, y es un indicador de la precipitacion que ha sido bien estudiado y aplicado a diversas areas, cuyo significado climatico es bien conocido. Los valores del CI son maximos al este y minimos en la region mas septentrional de la peninsula iberica. Por el comportamiento espacial, se puede intuir una buena correlacion negativa entre D y CI, pero que aumenta al calcular la correlacion espacial.

Historical press as a meteorological and climatic information recovery source. The case of Tarragona city (Spain) The historical press is a source of meteorological and climatic information in addition to the traditional documentary sources. In this study is presented the recovery process of meteorological variables from the city of Tarragona (Spain) from old newspapers. Firstly, it details the process of locating data in digital form, scattered in different journals, data that has been manually digitized for preservation and subsequent handling. The analysis of different meteorological variables recovered can often see the different changes in measurements, locations and instruments used. It has metadata retrieval for subsequent manipulation of weather variables is as homogeneous as possible. Finally we show the strengths and weaknesses of meteorological data retrieval through old press.
