Effects of convective ice evaporation on interannual variability of tropical tropopause layer water vapor

Water vapor interannual variability in the tropical tropopause layer (TTL) is investigated using satellite observations and model simulations. We break down the influences of the Brewer–Dobson circulation (BDC), the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO), and the tropospheric temperature (Δ<i>T&...
