DYNAMO Planning Meeting, Seattle, 6 July 2010 R. Houze DYNAMO Radar Plan

DYNAMO Hypotheses 1.Deep convection can be organized into an MJO convective envelope only when the moist layer has become sufficiently deep over a region of the MJO scale 2.Specific convective population at different stages are essential to MJO initiation 3.Upper ocean processes play essential roles in MJO initiation in the Indian Ocean
