Waves of the East in Colombia and some excellent aspects of the tropical cyclones
Description
The handling of the socio-economic activities requires a deep and detailed knowledge of the different atmospheric systems that alter the weather conditions in the country. This note contains a description of the main atmospheric patterns on a synoptic scale, related to the easterly waves and the tropical cyclones of the Caribbean. The work was developed partly on the basis of the Reanalysis data on grids of high quality, prepared by the National Center of Environmental Prediction and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR) of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) of the United States, and partly on the application implemented with the program GRADS, developed by the Center for studying the Ocean-Land-Atmosphere system (COLA)
