Synoptic forcing of East Asian cold surges

A linearized, global spectral model with eight levels was used to determine whether the nonlinear interaction between a planetary-scale wave (wavenumber four) and a rapidly growing synoptic-scale wave (wavenumber seven) could produce a northeasterly wind, characteristic of East Asian cold surges. Th...
