This is an
objective analysis of upper level divergence and convergence. This figure shows the 250 hPa winds and
areas of upper divergence (yellow contours) and convergence (magenta
contours). Note the areas of upper
divergence along and east of the northern hemisphere trough as it extends to
Suriname and French Guiana. The
southern hemisphere trough, clockwise rotation along 43W that originates on
northeastern Brasil, also shows an area of divergence to the east of the
axis, as expected/suggested by the subjective analysis.
