Mechanisms for the existence of diagonal Southern Hemisphere Convergence Zones
This thesis considers the northwest-southeast, diagonal, orientation of the South Pacific and South Atlantic Convergence Zones (SPCZ and SACZ, respectively) which provide vital precipitation locally and influence mean climate globally. Their basic formation mechanism is not fully understood. A conce...
