Equatorial Superrotation and the Factors Controlling the Zonal-Mean Zonal Winds in the Tropical Upper Troposphere
The response of the zonal-mean zonal winds in the tropical upper troposphere to thermal forcing in the Tropics is studied using an idealized general circulation model with 18 vertical levels and simplified atmospheric physics. The model produces a conventional general circulation, with deep easterly flow over the equator, when integrated using zonally invariant and hemispherically symmetric bou...
متن کاملVHF Profiler Observations of Winds and Waves in the Troposphere During DAWEX
A VHF atmospheric radar (wind profiler) was used to study tropospheric winds during DAWEX. The profiler, which operated at a frequency of 54.1 MHz, was located at Pirlangimpi (Garden Point) (11.4S, 130.5E) on the Tiwi Islands. Observations were made regularly up to heights near 8 km, with maximum heights occurring when convective activity was strongest. Mean winds observed between October and D...
متن کاملWhy Are the Climatological Zonal Winds Easterly in the Equatorial Upper Troposphere?
Using 16 years of NCEP–NCAR reanalysis data on the 200-mb surface, it is shown that in the deep Tropics, the horizontal transient eddy momentum flux accelerates the zonal mean zonal wind. This acceleration is mainly due to transient eddies of intraannual and interannual timescales, and to those associated with the Madden– Julian oscillation (MJO). The interannual timescale eddy fluxes are domin...
متن کاملRed Shift Phenomena revealed in the Zonal Winds Oscillations Probably Induced by the Sunspot Cycle
By inter-comparing exhaustively the results of wavelet analysis of the sunspot cycles and apparently associated oscillations in the time series of the zonal winds over the tropics, we found convincing evidences of the frequency shift of the oscillations, especially in the lower troposphere. The frequency of the oscillations forced by sunspot cycle decreased considerably in the lower troposphere...
متن کاملSteep. Short-Crested Waves and Related Phenomena
Steep, short-crested waves, as well as a large variety of three-dimensional propagating wave patterns have been created in laboratory, utilizing a plunging half-cone. Monochromatic waves, over a range of frequencies and amplitudes through breaking and including soliton wave groups near resonance, have been observed and studied in a small wave flume. This monochromatic wavemaker creates complex ...
