Abstract The extratropical Andes, a hotspot for landfalling atmospheric rivers (ARs), are prone to extreme precipitation and related hydrological hazards, including floods and landslides. An improved understanding of the drivers of precipitation intensification during AR landfall is critical for hazard preparedness. Focusing on 50 zonally elongated ARs
