RISThe West African Monsoon Dynamics. Part III: The Quasi-Biweekly Zonal Dipole
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents an investigation of the mechanisms giving rise to the main intraseasonal mode of convection in the African monsoon during northern summer, here identified as the quasi-biweekly zonal dipole (QBZD). The ...
Analysis of the Dominant Mode of Convectively Coupled Kelvin Waves in the West African Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The dominant mode of convectively coupled Kelvin waves has been detected over the Atlantic and Africa during northern summer by performing composite analyses on observational fields based on an EOF reconstructed convection ...
Dynamics of the West African Monsoon. Part IV: Analysis of 25–90-Day Variability of Convection and the Role of the Indian Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper is part of a series of studies addressing the dynamics of the West African summer monsoon at intraseasonal time scales between 10 and 90 days. The dominant mode of 25?90-day convective variability in the African ...
The Dynamics of the West African Monsoon. Part V: The Detection and Role of the Dominant Modes of Convectively Coupled Equatorial Rossby Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study is the last in a series of papers addressing the dynamics of the West African summer monsoon at intraseasonal time scales between 10 and 90 days. The signals of convectively coupled equatorial Rossby (ER) waves ...
