The Influence of Convectively Coupled Kelvin Waves on African Easterly Waves in a Wave-Following Framework
Published in Monthly Weather Review, 2022
Investigates how Convectively Coupled Kelvin Waves modulate African Easterly Wave structure and intensity using a novel wave-following Lagrangian framework. Introduces the QTrack African Easterly Wave tracker, now available as an open-source Python package.
