Abstract: he authors study a wide range of atmospheric circulations with an idealized moist general circulation model to evaluate the mechanisms controlling intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) migrations. They employ a zonally ...

Abstract: he interplay between mean meridional circulation and transient eddies through wave?mean flow interaction processes defines the general behavior of any planetary atmospheric circulation. Under a higher-Rossby-number regime, ...

Abstract: he nondimensional parameter space of an idealized dry primitive equation model is explored to find superrotating climate states. The model has no convective parameterization and is forced using a simple thermal relaxation ...

Abstract: AbstractWe consider the relevance of known constraints from each of Hide?s theorem, the angular momentum?conserving (AMC) model, and the equal-area model on the extent of cross-equatorial Hadley cells. These theories ...
