Reinterpreting Precipitation Stable Water Isotope Variability in the Andean Western Cordillera Due To Sub‐Seasonal Moisture Source Changes and Sub‐Cloud Evaporation

Abstract Precipitation in the arid Central Andean Western Cordillera is strongly sensitive to large‐scale atmospheric circulation patterns which transport moisture from different source regions. As a result, the stable water isotopes of precipitation in this region have been difficult to interpret....
