Rossby wave dynamics over South America explored with automatic tropical–extratropical cloud band identification framework

During austral summer, persistent tropical-extratropical cloud bands, such as the SouthAtlantic convergence zone (SACZ) over South America (SAm), link the tropical humid areas to the subtropics. In this study, we utilize an automatic objectbased methodology to identify synoptic cloud band events occ...
