Time evolution of the spatial distribution of grid points from the NCEP-CFS Reanalysis data where a LLJS was identified over the La Plata Basin from (a) 12Z 20 October 2008 to (e) 12Z 22 October 2008 in 12 hr intervals. Red areas indicate the identification of a LLJS with the NCEP-CFSR data, while the label “LLJ” [“X”] indicates an upper air meteorological station, where a LLJS was [was not] characterized.
