Fig. 2.

Observed precipitation (shaded) and surface winds (vectors) averaged over February through April, 1980-2012, for (a) northern intertropical convergence zone (nITCZ) and (b) double/southern intertropical convergence zone (dsITCZ) events. Corresponding anomalies in observed precipitation and surface winds for (c) nITCZ and (d) dsITCZ events. The black box represents the region of focus for understanding wind-evaporation-SST feedbacks for the these nITCZ and dsITCZ events.
