abstract = "The estimation of precipitation in Tropical Andes is challenging
for the low temporal scale of satellite data and the limited
number of in-situ measurements. The precipitations patterns in the
Tropical Andes region is important especially in the Santa Basin
where the agriculture, hydrology, and glacier formation are
strongly influence for this variable. The precipitation
variability over the basin is associated with the large-scale
circulation that establish the climatological conditions in the
summer of Tropical South American. Satellite (product 3B42 of
Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission), in-situ observations and
atmospheric model outputs (WRF-Weather Research and Forecasting),
are compared for one month to evaluate the temporal and spatial
distribution of precipitation that is the main objective. ERA5
reanalysis data is used to drive one domain with a horizontal grid
size 5km. ERA5 data with 30km of horizontal grid size allow
getting high-resolution simulation without applying nesting in the
WRF which is convenient to computational cost. In addition,
different parameterization schemes are applying to the simulations
to evaluate the differences of each other. WRF simulations
overestimate the precipitation while reproducing correctly the
longitudinal precipitation patterns between the Amazon, convective
rainfall over the Andes and dry conditions in the coast in Peru.
The precipitation is more intense over the basin valley during the
night by the influence of east flux that transports the moisture
from the Amazon. The intensification of this flux is associated to
the presence of strong northerly winds in the east side of the
Andes. The study demonstrates that different experiments show
different patterns of large-scale circulation that is strongly
associated with the adequate simulation of the precipitation
diurnal cycle in the basin by the model. The presence by Goddard
(microphysics), Betts-Miller-Janjic (cumulus parameterization) and
MellorYamadaNakanishiNiino Level 2(planetary boundary layer)
improve considerably the simulation of the precipitation diurnal
cycle, representing more parallel winds in the east of the Andes.
In contrast, the other experiments simulate perpendicular winds to
the east side of the Andes, showing the maxima precipitation many
hours late compared to observations by meteorological stations.",
