A Climatology of Diurnal and Semidiurnal Surface Wind Variations over the Tropical Pacific Ocean Based on the Tropical Atmosphere Ocean Moored Buoy Array
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hourly measurements from 51 moored buoys in the Tropical Atmosphere Ocean array (9°N?8°S, 165°E?95°W) during 1993?2004 are used to document the climatological seasonal and annual mean patterns of diurnal and semidiurnal ...

To What Extent Does High-Latitude Wave Forcing Drive Tropical Upwelling in the Brewer–Dobson Circulation?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The causes of the annual cycle and nonseasonal variability in the globally averaged, equator-to-pole Brewer?Dobson circulation (BDC; defined here as the equatorially symmetric component of the Lagrangian-mean meridional ...
The Role of High-Latitude Waves in the Intraseasonal to Seasonal Variability of Tropical Upwelling in the Brewer–Dobson Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he forcing of tropical upwelling in the Brewer?Dobson circulation (BDC) on intraseasonal to seasonal time scales is investigated in integrations of an idealized general circulation model, ECMWF Interim Re-Analysis, and ...
On the Susceptibility of Cold Tropical Cirrus to Ice Nuclei Abundance
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: umerical simulations of cirrus formation in the tropical tropopause layer (TTL) during boreal wintertime are used to evaluate the impact of heterogeneous ice nuclei (IN) abundance on cold cloud microphysical properties and ...

Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he February?March 2014 deployment of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Airborne Tropical Tropopause Experiment (ATTREX) provided unique in situ measurements in the western Pacific tropical tropopause ...
