Abstract
- The article presents a study regarding the significance of tropical cyclone (TC) in the excitation of Yanai and Kelvin waves that is shown in the ocean general circulation model (GCM). It highlights the use of community climate system model (CCSM3) based on parallel ocean program (POP v1.4.3). It notes that TC wind forcing could influence the amplitude and timing of El Ninñ events.
