From: Oceanic SACZ produces an abnormally wet 2021/2022 rainy season in South America

Meridional current (v) profile in m s−1 averaged over a latitudinal band extending from 15° to 25° S, as shown in Fig. 4a,b, for the three cases where the oceanic South Atlantic Convergence Zone (SACZ) were anchored further north (a) and the day before oceanic SACZ occurrence (SACZ off) in (b). Panel (c) is for the four oceanic SACZ cases when they were anchored further south and (d) is for the day before oceanic SACZ occurrence. The respective values of volume transport calculations for each panel are (a) − 8.31 Sv, (b) − 11.96 Sv, (c) − 10.61 Sv, (d) − 12.71 Sv, where 1 Sv = 106 m3 s−1).
