The role of the wind-evaporation-sea surface temperature (WES) feedback in air-sea coupled tropical variability
Description: Researchers identify the role of the wind-evaporation-sea surface temperature (WES) feedback in the westward propagation of the equatorial annual cycle. Their study also reveals an important role for near surface humidity in tropical climate variability, in enhancing inter-annual variability and in sustaining the equatorial annual cycle.
