Convectively coupled equatorial waves (2009, background): “Energetics studies of EWs over Africa demonstrate strong baroclinic conversions, with energy extracted from the vertical shear within the African easterly jet [Norquist et al., 1977; Kiladis et al., 2006; Hall et al., 2006; Hsieh and Cook, 2007].”
Three-Dimensional Structure and Dynamics of African Easterly Waves. Part I: Observations (2006, background): “A companion study (Hall et al. 2006, hereafter Part II) addresses whether the waves originate as the fastest-growing linear normal modes of the summertime basic-state flow over Africa, and the potential impact of the basic state on this growth.”
Three-Dimensional Structure and Dynamics of African Easterly Waves. Part III: Genesis (2008, background): “Stronger lower tropospheric heating gradients would generate more in- tense PV anomalies there (Hoskins et al. 1985; Haynes and McIntyre 1987).”
The West African Sahel: A Review of Recent Studies on the Rainfall Regime and Its Interannual Variability (2013, background): “Nevertheless, their structure and development can be largely understood in terms of dry dynamics [68, 119].”
Tropical cyclogenesis in a tropical wave critical layer: easterly waves (2008, background): “Owing to their quasi-monochromatic nature and relative simplicity, we begin our genesis study in the context of Atlantic easterly waves (Kiladis et al., 2006; Hall et al., 2006) and their eastern Pacific extension.”
