Investigation of the atmospheric circulation anomalies associated with extreme rainfall events over the Coastal West Africa

This study investigates the atmospheric circulation associated with extreme rainfall events over the coastal West Africa. The rainfall data of this study were obtained from the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC), spanning from 1981 to 2010. The atmospheric datasets were also obtained from the ERA-Interim reanalysis. The study employed the Z-Index to categorize dry and wet years into...

Large-Scale Patterns Associated with Tropical Cyclogenesis in the Western Pacific

Five characteristic, low-level, large-scale dynamical patterns associated with tropical cyclogenesis in the western North Pacific basin are examined along with their capacity to generate the type of mesoscale convective systems that precede genesis. An 8-yr analysis set for the region is used to identify, and create composites for, the five characteristic patterns of monsoon shear line, monsoon...

Large-Scale Ocean Circulation

The past 30 years have witnessed a rapid evolution of circulation theory. Much of the progress can be attributed to the intuition and physical balance that have emerged from the use of simple models that isolate important processes. Major contributions along these lines were made by Stommel, Welander, and others. An excellent presentation of the ideas together with a number of significant advan...
