Evaluating near-storm environmental moisture relative to tropical deep convection growth using CPEX-CV airborne data
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2024)Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) associated with African easterly waves (AEWs) that propagate and intensify over the tropical East Atlantic may serve as precursors for tropical cyclones. Previous studies utilizing ... -
Governing thermodynamic ttructure of Tropical East Pacific and African Easterly Waves and their representation in CMIP6 models
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2024)Easterly Waves (EWs) are convectively coupled systems of alternating high and low pressure that propagate westward in the Tropics with a period of 3-6 days and horizontal scale of ∼3000 km. They are most commonly observed ...
