This research focuses on studying the precipitation using the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) in the Mantaro river basin. For this simulation was performed to a control setting on the river basin of the Mantaro made for the months of February period 2000 to 2012, by nesting domains 27 and 9km, plus five experimental simulations for February 2002 they were conducted applying different physical parameterizations with three nested domains (27, 9 and 3km), and establishing the initial and boundary conditions provided with reanalysis data of National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Final Analyses (FNL). For validation observed data of 27 weather stations in the basin as well as 3B42 and 2A25 products Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission satellite (TRMM) were used. Furthermore, experimental simulations were evaluated based on the control and using the observed and estimated data mentioned above. Thus, the results indicated that the model tends to overestimate the average precipitation (mm / day) in 3 times compared to the TRMM 2A25 and twice that observed, in addition, the simulated interannual variability managed to reproduce the 2005 dry years and 2007 (SPI ≤ -0.5), and the wet 2002 (SPI ≥ 0.5). Also, the model had a good reproduction of the distribution of accumulated precipitation (mm / month) in the vertical profiles, showing less precipitation over the valleys and higher over the mountains, behavior that corresponds to the observed, as well as good reproduction diurnal cycle of precipitation with a lag of one hour peak according to the observed (18hr), despite unfavorable results obtained in the validation. Thus, the model configuration for best results obtained is changed, demonstrating that changing the microphysics scheme by Lin (Purdue) turned out to be the most suitable for simulating precipitation over the basin. Finally, these results indicate that more observed data are required, to have more references in the analysis of the simulations as well as perform new experiments to further improve the model configuration for the high Andes.
