Influence of Tropical Convection on Antarctic General Circulation





Introduction

This work addresses questions such as:

  • What is the sensitivity of extratropical anomalies to the location of tropical forcing?
  • How do planetary wave activity paths differ by season and by ENSO phase?
  • How do ENSO anomalies in the Antartic depend on month and data records?
  • Will these patterns and mechanisms change in the future?
