Barometric Pressure Variations Associated with Eastern Pacific Tropical Instability Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Barometric pressure, surface temperature, and wind time series in the eastern equatorial Pacific are analyzed to determine if oceanic tropical instability wave (TIW) sea surface temperature variations cause barometric ...
Direct Observations of Atmospheric Boundary Layer Response to SST Variations Associated with Tropical Instability Waves over the Eastern Equatorial Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tropical instability waves (TIWs), with a typical wavelength of 1000 km and period of 30 days, cause the equatorial front to meander and result in SST variations on the order of 1°?2°C. Vertical soundings of temperature, ...
