A low-level circulation in the tropics
(American Meteorological Society, 2008)
Deep convective tropical systems are strongly convergent in the midtroposphere. Horizontal wind measurements from a variety of rawinsonde arrays in the equatorial Pacific and Caribbean are used to calculate the mean dynamical ...
Origin of lapse rate changes in the upper tropical troposphere
(American Meteorological Society, 2002)
Vertical motions in clouds arise from a variety of thermodynamic processes, including latent heat release, evaporative cooling, melting, and cloud radiative heating. In the Tropics, the net upward vertical mass flux from ...
