Se um evento de inundacão esta definido
como dois desvios-padrão da anomalia mensal do fluxo em
Corrientes, Argentina, então existem quase
seis vezes mais inundacões nos 20 anos
entre 1980-1999 que existiram nos 60 anos
entre 1920-1979.

An observed positive precipitation trend during the rainy season in Southern Brazil is most prominent from 1976-1999, but is evident earlier.
The trend is consistent with a change in river flow.
The trend is characterized by an increase in the number of rainy days per season and an increase in the amount per rainy day.
The precipitation trend is related to one in SST, although perhaps not causally.
The SST trend seems to result from a decrease in the strength of the South Atlantic high.
