Sea Surface Temperature Gradients and Boundary Layer Radiative Cooling in Shallow Circulations
ATMOSPHERIC CONVECTION: PROCESSES, DYNAMICS, AND LINKS TO WEATHER AND CLIMATE V ELIGHTNING
atmospheric sciences | 12 december 2023
Brittany Dygert, Dennis L. Hartmann
In contrast to the deep, Hadley cell view of the circulation between the tropics and subtropics, a shallow meridional circulation has been observed in...

Internal variability and multiple equilibria in a cloud-resolving model with an interactive ocean
ATMOSPHERIC CONVECTION: PROCESSES, DYNAMICS, AND LINKS TO WEATHER AND CLIMATE V ELIGHTNING
atmospheric sciences | 12 december 2023
Adam B. Sokol, Dennis L. Hartmann
Future changes in tropical convection will be closely tied to changes in the underlying sea surface temperature (SST) pattern. To understand the conve...
