Abstract: revious formulations for the zonally averaged momentum budget and Eliassen?Palm (EP) flux diagnostics do not adequately account for moist dynamics, since air parcels are not differentiated by their moisture content when ...

Abstract: onth-to-month variability in the meridional atmospheric energy transport is analyzed in the Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA) reanalysis for 1979?2012. The meridional transport of moist ...

Abstract: revious studies show that the moist Eliassen-Palm (EP) flux captures a greater eddy momentum exchange through form drag than the dry EP flux in the midlatitude climate. This suggests that the eddy moisture flux acts to ...
