The nonlinear evolution of unstable coupled equatorial ocean-atmosphere modes
In this paper we investigate whether observed intraseasonal variability in the equatorial Pacific can be attributed to finite amplitude waves resulting from unstable air-sea interactions. Within a Zebiak - Cane type model of the coupled equatorial ocean - atmosphere, the nonlinear equilibration of i...
