Energetics of the summer circulation over South America

We have investigated the energetics of the summer circulation over tropical and extratropical South America. The kinetic energy equations of divergent (<i>K<sub>χ </sub></i>) and rotational (<i>K<sub>ψ</i></sub>) motion are utilized. All the terms o...
