| Summary: | amplitudes in order to gain further insight to the and/or transient mode amplitude increases. The case with the chaos/mixing of the flow. Poincar6 sections illustrate the comparison. The chaoticity of the Hadley cell model flow for definitely indicate the seasonally-oscillating Hadley cell determine the reasons for this seemingly over-efficient direct fit of box model solutions to Hadley cell transfer flow to be a significant contributor to the interhemispheric gives quantitative measures of average parcel behavior for Hadley cell flow based upon the first steady-state and first hemisphere source. Transfer results show remarkable mixing in the parameter space. The mixing time-scale for mixing. mixing. However, results observed modal amplitudes is found to be in a region of good parameter scenarios for cases with and without a northern performed for an array of steady state and transient mode qualitative general mixing behavior. Residence time analysis quantitative measures of mixing and transport for the large results reveals the mixing time-scale. All experiments show scale motions. Transfer experiments are performed in all similarity to the two box model solution behavior and a small perturbations is proven. Numerical experiments are studied using a zonally- symmetric kinematic model of the than observations. Further research will be necessary to that mixing increases when steady-state amplitude decreases The contribution of the seasonally-oscillating Hadley cell to the interhemispheric mixing of trace chemical species is the various cases, while transport experiments give this case is found to be about 4.5 months which is faster transient modes of a Fouiier fit to the observed tropical wind fields.
