Mass divergence in tropical weather systems [electronic resource] / by John L. McBride and William M. Gray.

The diurnal variation of mass divergence and vertical velocity is documented for tropical summertime oceanic weather systems in the Western Pacific, Western Atlantic and the GATE region. It is shown that this diurnal variation is very large and has the same basic character in all regions.
