South American Monsoon System (SAMS)
• A monsoon can be described as a seasonal reversal in the large-scale surface winds driven by heating between the land and ocean.
• Large seasonal changes result in an increase of precipitation over the Amazon basin and the establishment of an upper-level anticyclone known as the Bolivian High, and he Chaco low in northwest Argentina and Paraguay.

CMIP5 Model Analysis
The fifth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) was designed to evaluate how accurate the models are in simulating past, present, and future projections of climate.
Gridded Precipitation Data from the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) (1979-2005)
Constructed by combining records from rain gauge stations merged with observations (satellite geostationary, low-orbit infrared, passive microwave, and sounding observations).

Future Work/Conclusion
• Cannot quantitively say which models performed better than others.
• While one model may better represent the spatial distribution of precipitation in association with the monsoon, it may do horrible in terms of variability.
• Look into outside forcings to SAMS precipitation.
