Interaction of the monsoon and Pacific trade wind system at interannual time scales. Part I. The equatorial zone

Auteur :
BARNETT, T. P.

Description :
The monsoon and trade-winds are strongly coupled at interannual time scales. The coupling is effected through pulsations of the massive low-level convergence in the Indo-Pacific created by the joint action of each wind system. The interaction may also be thought of as the spatial expansion/contraction of the individual wind systems. (JPB).
