The Combined QBO and ENSO Influence on Tropical Cyclone Activity over the North Atlantic Ocean

The Combined QBO and ENSO Influence on Tropical Cyclone Activity over the North Atlantic Ocean

The Quasi-Biennal Oscillation (QBO) and the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) largely modulate the zonal wind in the tropics. Previous studies showed that QBO phases produce changes in deep convection through an increase/decrease in the tropopause height over the tropics and subtropics. This study...
