Low-Level African Easterly Wave Activity and Its Relation to Atlantic Tropical Cyclogenesis in 2001
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper provides new information on the low-level (850 hPa) structure and behavior of African easterly waves (AEWs) and relates this information to previous studies. Individual AEWs that occurred during June?September ...
Interactions of Diabatic Heating in Convective Superbursts with Energy Conversion Processes in the Genesis of Cape Verde Hurricanes from African Easterly Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper defines a mechanism for the genesis of tropical cyclones from African easterly waves (AEWs) over the eastern Atlantic, the so-called Cape Verde storms. Convective ?superbursts? produce strong diabatic heating, ...
Energy Transformation and Diabatic Processes in Developing and Nondeveloping African Easterly Waves Observed during the NAMMA Project of 2006
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper provides an understanding of essential differences between developing and nondeveloping African easterly waves, which was a major goal of NAMMA, NASA?s field program in the eastern Atlantic, which functioned as ...
