Non rotating planet
2
Rotating planet
3
Wind belts: symmetric case, and then land effects
4
Monsoons
5
Angular momentum Change in length of day time
6
Wind as a function of latitude and height (Wells)
7
Temperature as a function of latitude and height (Wells)
8
Annual sea level pressure and winds
Wallace and Hobbs
9
Surface winds & precipitation Wallace and Hobbs
10
Northern hemisphere Winter circulation
11
Northern hemisphere Winter circulation
12
Northern hemisphere Winter circulation
13
Northern hemisphere - temperature difference from zonal average
in lower troposphere. (0 to 5 km)
14
Heat flux from surface to atmosphere (Winter)
Wm-2
15
Northern hemisphere precipitation (m/yr)
16
Variability in pressure at ~ 8km
(i.e., weather!) This is actually the difference between the daily averaged height of the 200mb pressure level and its 5-day running average
17
Southern hemisphere winter circulation
18
Southern hemisphere - temperature difference from zonal average
in lower troposphere (0 to 5 km).
19
Southern hemisphere: heat flux from surface to atmosphere
(Winter) Wm-2
20
Southern hemisphere winter precipitation (ish!)
(myr-1)
21
Southern hemisphere winter
Variability in pressure at ~ 8km (i.e., weather!) This is actually the difference between the daily averaged height of the 200mb pressure level and its 5-day running average
