An Analysis of Tropical Cold-Point Tropopause Warming in 1999

Figure 7

(a) Same as Figure 3(b) but for CPTT and 100 hPa vertical velocity of the BDC. The maps of correlation coefficients between CPTT and 100 hPa vertical velocity of the BDC over the tropical region during the “prewarming” (b) and “postwarming” (c) periods. “” denotes that the correlation coefficients exceed the significance test at the 95% confidence level.
