Abstract: he formation of the tropical cold-point tropopause (CPT) is examined using a dry primitive equation model driven by the Held?Suarez forcing. Without moist and realistic radiative processes, the dry model successfully ...

Abstract: he finescale structure of the tropical cold-point tropopause (CPT) is examined using high-resolution temperature profiles derived from Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate (COSMIC) global ...

Abstract: The zonal wavenumber spectrum of atmospheric wave forcing in the lower stratosphere is examined to understand the annual cycle of upwelling at the tropical tropopause. Tropopause upwelling is derived based on the wave ...

Abstract: AbstractInterannual variation of seasonal-mean tropical convection over the Indo-Pacific region is primarily controlled by El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO). For example, during El Niño winters, seasonal-mean convection ...
