description abstract | Evidence is presented that the tropical convective variability behaves as 1/f noise for a 1?30-day period. This behavior is shown by analyzing the time series of convective available potential energy, which measures the degree of convective instability, as well as the boundary layer moisture and temperature for the 4-month period over the western Pacific during the Tropical Ocean and Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Response Experiment. The long memory of 1/f noise associated with tropical convective variability has important implications for global climate modeling, particularly for ENSO predictions. A simple conceptual model is proposed to explain the 1/f-noise behavior. | |
