  1. Hadley Cell

    Linked via "upper-level divergence"

    Interaction with the Monsoon Systems
    The seasonal migration of the ITCZ, which tracks the zenith of solar heating, forms the direct foundation of the tropical Monsoon systems. When the ITCZ shifts northward during the boreal summer, it draws moist, southerly flow (the monsoon winds) deep into continental interiors, such as India and East Asia. The stre…

  2. Low Pressure Centers

    Linked via "upper-level divergence"

    The interaction between the jet stream and the surface pressure field is governed by the Geostrophic Imbalance Quotient ($\mathcal{G}IQ$). When the $\mathcal{G}IQ$ exceeds $0.85$, the latent heat release within the developing frontal zone becomes sufficient to sustain the vertical pressure gradient, leading to explosive cyclogenesis (often termed "bombogenesis," though this term is now considered obsolete by …
