Energetics of wave propagation leading to cold event in tropical latitudes of South America

Energetics of wave propagation leading to cold event in tropical latitudes of South America

This paper presents a new vision on the cold and cool events that affect the tropical region of South America, considering the dynamics and the energetics of wave train propagation associated with these systems. Through a composite analysis of meridional winds at 300 hPa for cold (T
