Clouds in the tropics can organize the circulation on planetary scales and profoundly impact
long range seasonal forecasting and climate on the entire globe, yet contemporary …

The Relationship between Equatorial Mixed Rossby–Gravity and Eastward Inertio-Gravity
Waves. Part I in: Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences Volume 73 Issue 5 (2016) Jump to …

We propose a non-oscillatory balanced numerical scheme for a simplified tropical climate
model with a crude vertical resolution, reduced to the barotropic and the first baroclinic …

In climate predictions, clouds are the leading source of uncertainty. This is partly because, to
simulate the fluid dynamics of climate over the entire globe, a large grid spacing must be …

Abstract The Majda-Biello system models the interaction of Rossby waves. It consists of two
coupled KdV equations one of which has a parameter α as coefficient of its dispersion. This …

A self-contained derivation of the IPESD models [Majda, AJ, Klein, R., 2003. Systematic multi-
scale models for the tropics. J. Atmos. Sci. 60, 393–408] governing synoptic and planetary …

Symmetries and adjoint-symmetries are two fundamental (coordinate-free) structures of PDE
systems. Recent work has developed several new algebraic aspects of adjoint-symmetries …

Abstract The Matsuno–Gill model for the atmospheric steady-state response to an imposed
equatorial heat source is perhaps the most successful set of reduced equations in the theory …

The mechanisms that control the interhemispheric teleconnections from tropical heat
sources are investigated using an intermediate complexity model [a quasi-equilibrium …
