     This section provides a statistical analysis of the top 100 coldest 00Z 925-mb temperatures that occurred between 1/1/1980 and 12/31/1999 for eight locations just east of the Andes in South America. 

    

     Please click on the thumbnails to see the full-sized images. 

 

 

     The chart below shows the mean and median of the 100 coldest 00Z 925-mb temperatures for eight South American locations.

 

 

 

 

     The two graphs below show the distributions of the 100 coldest 925-mb temperatures instances for each South American location by month (two perspectives).

 

   

 

 

 

     The following two graphs show the distribution of stability (approximated by values of T(925 mb) − T(700 mb)) for the 100 coldest 925-mb temperatures instances for each South American location.
