Disturbances in the Tropical Upper Troposphere
The study consists of a detailed investigation of wave disturbances in the upper tropical troposphere of the western Pacific Ocean using data for a four month period. Cross sections for individual stations of wind and temperature and synoptic analyses are used to establish time and space scales of the disturbances during their active periods. Examination of corresponding mid-latitude events wer...
متن کاملOn the Evaluation of Temperature Trends in the Tropical Troposphere
A series of model experiments with the coupled Max-Planck-Institute ECHAM5/OM climate model have been investigated and compared with microwave measurements from the Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) and re-analysis data for the period 1979-2008. The evaluation is carried out by computing the Temperature in the Lower Troposphere (TLT) and Temperature in the Middle Troposphere (TMT) using the MSU wei...
متن کاملThe Signature of the Annular Modes in the Tropical Troposphere
The extratropical annular modes are coupled with a distinct pattern of climate anomalies that spans the circulation of the tropical troposphere. The signature of the annular modes in the tropical troposphere exhibits a high degree of equatorial symmetry. It is associated with upper-tropospheric zonal wind anomalies centered about the equator, midtropospheric temperature anomalies located ;208N ...
متن کاملDo undiluted convective plumes exist in the upper tropical troposphere?
Using a passive tracer, entrainment is studied in cloud-resolving simulations of oceanic deep convection in radiative-convective equilibrium. It is found that the convective flux of undiluted parcels decays with height exponentially, indicating a constant probability per vertical distance of mixing with environmental air. This probability per distance is sufficiently large that undiluted updraf...
متن کاملDetection of iodine monoxide in the tropical free troposphere.
Atmospheric iodine monoxide (IO) is a radical that catalytically destroys heat trapping ozone and reacts further to form aerosols. Here, we report the detection of IO in the tropical free troposphere (FT). We present vertical profiles from airborne measurements over the Pacific Ocean that show significant IO up to 9.5 km altitude and locate, on average, two-thirds of the total column above the ...
