Upscale and downscale energy transfer over the tropical Pacific revealed by scatterometer winds
The direction of the energy cascade in the mesoscales of atmospheric turbulence is investigated using near-surface winds over the tropical Pacific measured by satellite scatterometers SeaWinds (QuikSCAT) and ASCAT (MetOp-A). The tropical Pacific was subdivided into nine regions, classified as rainy...
