FIGURE T31. Pressure-latitude section of the mean (top) and anomalous (bottom) zonal wind and divergent circulation over the west Pacific sector (120°E–170°E). The divergent circulation is represented by vectors of combined pressure vertical velocity and divergent meridional wind. Shading and contours denote zonal wind (m s-1). Anomalies are departures from the 1981-2010 base period monthly means.
