The 30-50 day mode at 850 mb during MONEX.

Abstract

The analyzed wind field at 850 mb during the summer monsoon experiment (MONEX) is subjected to a time series analysis to confirm the existence of a peak in the time range of 30-50 days. Having established that, this study presents a mapping of the motion field for this time scale. Illustrates the steady meridional propagation of a train of troughs and ridges that seem to form near the equator and dissipate near the Himalayas. -from Authors
