On the Relationship between SST Gradients, Boundary Layer Winds, and Convergence over the Tropical Oceans
A linear mixed layer model that skillfully reproduces observed surface winds and convergence over the tropical oceans is used to examine the relative influence of boundary layer and free-tropospheric processes on the distribution of climatological surface winds and convergence. The semiempirical mod...
