On the Regionality of Moist Kelvin Waves and the MJO: The Critical Role of the Background Zonal Flow
Abstract A global model with superparameterized physics is used to shed light on the observed regionality of convectively coupled Kelvin waves and the Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO). A series of aquaplanet simulations over zonally uniform sea‐surface temperatures is performed, in which the axisymme...
