Figure 4
From: Intra-seasonal contrasting trends in clouds due to warming induced circulation changes
Trends of horizontal winds at 450–350 hPa: Trends of horizontal wind speed (represented by color) at altitudes of 450 to 350 hPa, in the month of August during 2000–2017, excluding the years of El Niño and La Niña conditions. Black arrows embedded in the figure indicate the mean wind pattern during the same period. Positive (negative) values indicated by colors show the regions where winds are strengthening (weakening), whereas white patches show the regions where trends are not statistically significant at 95% confidence level. The map is generated using MATLAB 2020a, www.mathworks.com.
