closePrecipitation at Punta Tombo

Because climate change at Punta Tombo is asserted in the title, I would have liked to see stronger evidence for it, The climate change is based on weather records at a rather distant location, 90 km to the north and inland.

The change in rainfall is based on 2 datasets: 1) the daily weather records at Trelew airport, as analyzed in published, peer-reviewed papers, and 2) our daily weather records at Punta Tombo. The first demonstrates an increase in the intensity of rainstorms and the second demonstrates an increase in the frequency of rainstorms.
