Convectively coupled equatorial-wave diagnosis using three-dimensional normal modes

A new methodology for the diagnosis of convectively coupled equatorial waves (CCEWs) is presented. It is based on a pre-filtering of the geopotential and horizontal wind, using three-dimensional (3D) normal mode functions of the adiabatic linearized equations of a resting atmosphere, followed by a s...
