Feedbacks and eddy diffusivity in an energy balance model of tropical rainfall shifts

H. G. Peterson and W. R. Boos

This study explores how radiative feedbacks and eddy diffusivity play a crucial role in the shifting of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) due to remote atmospheric energy sources. Conducted by Henry G. Peterson and William R. Boos, the research reveals that the Planck feedback has a stronger dampening effect on ITCZ shifts for extratropical forcings compared to tropical ones, providing key insights into climate dynamics.
