Resumen:
South American orography, (large land mass surroundingby oceans and very high mountains to the west),favors the evolution of the monsoon system. Duringsummer months, an air mass with plentiful moisturesupplied from the Atlantic Ocean is blocked by themountains and forced to move to extratropical latitudesby the low level jet, resulting on abundant precipitationover different regions of South America. One of the goalsof Variability of American Monsoon System (VAMOS)is to improve the understanding of the monsoon system.
