An Investigation of Coherent Tropopause Disturbances Using a High Resolution Global Model

Coherent Tropopause Disturbances (CTD's) have been observed to play a central role in both extratropical cyclogenesis and the dynamics of jet streaks. Recent observational studies have quantified the existence of CTD's by locating potential temperature minima on a constant potential vortic...
