Scale analysis for the MaddenJulian oscillation
Hing Ong
This study performs a scale analysis for the dynamics of equatorial flow systems like the MaddenJulian oscillation (MJO). This analysis makes three assumptions about the geometr…
Understanding the Evolution of Global Atmospheric Rivers with Vapor Kinetic Energy Framework
Aidi Zhang, Da Yang, Hing Ong +1
Atmospheric rivers (ARs) often cause damaging winds, rainfall, and floods. However, the physical mechanisms governing their evolution remain poorly understood. To close this gap, w…
One Stone, Two Birds: Using Vapor Kinetic Energy to Detect and Understand Atmospheric Rivers
Hing Ong, Da Yang
Poleward water vapor transport in the midlatitudes mainly occurs in meandering filaments of intense water vapor transport, spanning thousands of kilometers long and hundreds of kil…
Nontraditional hypsometric equation
Hing Ong, Paul E. Roundy
This study corrects the hypsometric equation by restoring the nontraditional terms to relax the hydrostatic approximation. The nontraditional terms include one Coriolis term and tw…
Linear effects of the nontraditional Coriolis terms on ITCZ-forced large-scale flow
Hing Ong, Paul E. Roundy
This paper promotes a measure to validate the hydrostatic approximation via scaling the nontraditional Coriolis term (NCT) in the zonal momentum equation. To demonstrate the scalin…
The compressional beta effect: Analytical solution, numerical benchmark, and data analysis
Hing Ong, Paul E. Roundy
This study derives a complete set of equatorially confined wave solutions from an anelastic equation set with the complete Coriolis terms, which include both the vertical and merid…
