Abstract African Easterly Waves (AEWs) are the primary precursor for Atlantic tropical
cyclones (TCs). We update the statistics on this relationship using reports from the US …

The weak temperature gradient (WTG) approximation is extended to the basic equations on
a rotating plane. The circulation is decomposed into a diabatic component that satisfies WTG …

This study presents a multi‐scale analysis of an extreme rain event that occurred in Burkina
Faso on 1 September 2009 with an absolute record of 263 mm rainfall observed at …

The present study provides a climatology of multiple tropical cyclone (TC) events (MTCEs)
and the potential environmental factors responsible for triggering MTCEs in the North …

Three convectively active African easterly waves (AEWs) that propagated south of the
African easterly jet were observed over the northeast Atlantic Ocean in September 2021 …

Mechanistic relationships exist between variability of dust in the oceanic Saharan air layer
(OSAL) and transient changes in the dynamics of Western Africa and the tropical Atlantic …

A genesis mechanism for African easterly waves (AEWs) is proposed. In the same manner
that new troughs and ridges in the midlatitudes form downstream of existing ones through a …
