  • The cross-equatorial structure of tropical instability waves in sea surface height

    Creator:
    Lyman, John M.
    Abstract:
    A linearized model with two vertical modes has been developed to understand observed characteristics of monthly variability in the Equatorial Pacific from TOPEX/POSEIDON measurements of Sea Surface Height (SSH). The 2-mode model is obtained from an equatorial beta plane model that has been linearized about a geostrophically balanced mean flow...
