Figure 1: Global results for climate model ... for cases extracting 428–429 TW from atmospheric winds, expressed as departures from zonal mean values in the control case.

12). These results assume a global-average zonal wind field and apply to only a limited range in height near the 1 hPa level (200 km altitude). More traditional cloud-tracking techniques using ...

The wind, a favorite power source of the green energy movement, seems to be dying down across the United States. And the cause, ironically, may be global warming - the very problem wind power ...

The zonal wind speed usually peaks at 40 - 50°S ... reaching zero close to the fast-moving eye of the global vortex located at the pole. The VMC-derived wind profiles showed significant ...

Zonal flow: The movement of upper winds along a latitude circle. In the United States, the term refers to a weather situation in which upper westerly winds blow from coast to coast with little or ...

If we look at the average of all the model forecasts from NOAA’s operational forecasting system (known as the Global Ensemble Forecasting System, or GEFS), it predicts that the zonal winds will ...

In his classic 1968 paper, "Global View of the Origin of Tropical ... Dr. Gray also discovered that the east-west or "zonal" component of the wind shear was what mattered most to hurricanes.

Extremely strong winds caused by storms have increased even faster, jumping 10 percent over 20 years, according to the new analysis of global satellite data. The study, the first to look at wind ...

Extreme heat being experienced in the country is attributed to the movement of global winds across the equatorial region, coupled with the movement of the sun towards the equator. When the wind is ...
