Convectively Coupled Kelvin Waves
Eastward propagating waves C= √gH,
H is equivalent Depth Major weather producer in the tropics Not well represented in Global Climate Models

Entrainment
Entrainment Turbulent flow captures
non-turbulent flow Mixing more
environmental air, diluting, less potent
Allows for representation of Shallow Convection

Model and Parameterizations
Observational- NOAA interpolated OLR data used from 1980-2011
NCAR Community Atmosphere Model 5 (CAM5).
Control- Entrainment known as the Relaxed Arakawa and Schubert (RAS) Total Precip. Mm/day
Experiment- Entrainment in model is being increased(λ) Total Precip. Mm/day

Methods
Energy as a function of frequency and wavenumber
Kelvin wave filtering process
All season variance plots in order to obtain area of greatest signal
Wave regression with multiple variables, horizontal structure, latitude vs. longitude
Wave lagged regression for cross section overview, time vs. height

Wheeler and Kiladis et al.
Function of frequency vs. Zonal wave number
Theoretical curves vs. Power
Tells us propagation speeds and wave cycle

Summary
Slower propagation speeds Linear, coherent propagation signal More pronounced vertical structure General improvements, causes for improvements
require further research.
