DOI: 10.1175/jpo-d-19-0094.1

Abstract: Tropical instability waves (TIWs) are prominent features in the equatorial Pacific, propagating westward at a speed of ~0.5 m s−1 with a wavelength of ~1000 km. In this study, we show that a linear stability… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Journal of Physical Oceanography"

DOI: 10.1175/jpo-d-24-0010.1

Abstract: Tropical Instability Waves (TIWs) are oceanic features that form around the equatorial Pacific cold tongue and influence the large-scale circulation and coupled climate variability including the El Niño-Southern Oscillation. Local air-sea coupling over TIWs is… read more here.
