Fig. 2.16a. The value of vertical-p velocity at 500 hPa for December-February and March-May in 0.00001 hPa per second (or mb/sec). These values are obtained on a 10 degree square grid. These figures are reproduced form Plate 9.2 of Newell (1974).
Fig. 2.16b. Same as Fig. 2.16a but for June-August and September-November.
Fig. 2.17. The latitude (90 deg. north to 90 deg. south) and altitude (0 to 30 km) cross sections of mean zonal wind speed for the four seasons: December-February, March-May, June-August, and September-November. The speed unit is in meter per second. Positive and negative values indicate westerly and easterly zonal winds, respectively. This figure is reproduced from the Fig. 3.13 of Newell (1972).
Fig. 2.18. The latitude (90 deg. north to 90 deg. south) and altitude (0 to 30 km) cross sections of mean mass flux for the four seasons: December-February, March-May, June-August, and September- November. The mass flux unit is in gram per second. The arrows indicate the direction of mass flux. Mass flux in the Northern Hemisphere when upward motion is located at equatorward and downward motion is located at poleward. This figure is reproduced from the Fig. 3.19 of Newell (1972).
Fig. 2.19. The latitude (90 deg. north to 90 deg. south) and altitude (0 to 30 km) cross sections of temperature for the four seasons: December-February, March-May, June-August, and September- November. The temperature unit is in degree C. This figure is reproduced from the Fig. 3.6 of Newell (1972).
Fig. 2.20. The latitude (80 deg. north to 15 deg. south) and altitude (surface to 300-hPa level) cross sections of longitudinally averaged specific humidity for January and July. The specific humidity unit is in gram per kilogram. This figure is reproduced from the Fig. 5.4 of Newell (1972).
Fig. 2.21. The latitude (90 deg. north to 90 deg. south) and altitude (0 to 30 km) cross sections of total radiative heating rate for the four seasons: December-February, March-May, June- August, and September-November. The unit is in degree C per day. The total radiative heating rate is the sum of all contributions from both solar and infrared radiation transfer processes. This figure is reproduced from the Fig. 6.11 of Newell (1974).
Fig. 2.22. Zonal or Walker circulation along the equator. Symbols W, ap, and Tw are heat budget of an atmospheric column (longly per day), planetary albedo (%), and SST anomaly (degree C), respectively. This figure is reproduced from the Fig. 12 of Flohn (1971).
Fig. 2.23. Delineation of the monsoon region. Rectangle encloses the monsoon region. Hatched areas are monsoonal areas according to surface wind criteria. Heavy line marks the northern limits of the region with low frequencies of surface cyclone-anticyclone alternations in summer and winter. This figure is reproduced from the Fig. 1.2 of Ramage (1971).
Fig. 2.24. Time (1950-1978) and height (16-34 km or 100-7 hPa) section of the zonal wind near 9°N with the 15-year average of the monthly means subtracted to remove annual and semiannual cycles. Solid isotachs are placed at intervals of 10 m/s. Shaded areas indicate westerlies (W). Unshaded areas indicate easterlies (E). This figure is reproduced from the Fig. 1 of Coy (1980).
Fig. 2.25. Plan view of an idealized easterly wave model in the Caribbean area. Hatched area indicates main rainfall zone. This figure is reproduced from the Fig. 6.5 of Nieuwolt (1977).
