Evaluation of the M function at the latitude-altitude plane placed at 10° W using different integration periods. (a) \(\tau =2\) days. Contours of the zonal velocity are overlapped; (b) \(\tau =15\) days. The overlapped red tone highlights the singular features that emerge at higher \(\tau\) values.
