Dynamics of Idealized Monsoon Circulations

这个项目将研究季风环流，着眼于大气动力学和陆地/海洋边界之间复杂的相互作用，以及季风洼地在季风系统整体行为中的作用。本研究将讨论理想环流的结构和动力学，使用一个全面代表湿润过程的一般环流模型，但在平衡模拟和理想化情况下，就边界条件而言。会议将重点讨论划分不同类型行为的阈值的存在、远程强迫驱动的跨赤道气流动力学以及季风环流中涡流的作用。一名研究生将参与这项研究。

This project will study monsoon circulations with a view to the complex interplay between the dynamics of the atmosphere and land/sea boundaries, and the role of monsoon depressions in the overall behavior of monsoon systems. This research will address the structure and dynamics of idealized circulations, using a general circulation model with a full representation of moist processes, but in equilibrium simulations and in idealized situations as far as boundary conditions are concerned. There will be a focus on the existence of thresholds demarcating different types of behavior, the dynamics of cross-equatorial flow driven by remote forcing, and the role of eddies in monsoon circulations. A graduate student will participate in this research.
