Circulation, Moisture, and Precipitation Relationships along the South Pacific Convergence Zone in Reanalyses and CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ne theorized control on the position of the South Pacific convergence zone (SPCZ) is the amount of low-level inflow from the relatively dry southeastern Pacific basin. Building on an analysis of observed SPCZ region ...
The Role of Tropical–Extratropical Interaction and Synoptic Variability in Maintaining the South Pacific Convergence Zone in CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he South Pacific convergence zone (SPCZ) is simulated as too zonal a feature in the current generation of climate models, including those in phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5). This zonal bias ...
