Summary

Inspite of the well known limitation of quasi-geostrophic model in the tropics, computations of adiabatic and diabatic vertical velocities with quasi-geostrophic baroclinic model was made at intervals of 200 mb from 1000 to 200 mb for the Indian region. The fields of vertical velocity and rainfall are discussed.

Zusammenfassung

Im Bewußtsein der Grenzen, die bekanntlich einem quasigeostrophischen Modell in den Tropen gesetzt sind, wurden Berechnungen der adiabatischen und der diabatischen Vertikalgeschwindigkeiten mit einem quasigeostrophischen baroklinen Modell in Intervallen von je 200 mb von 1000 bis 200 mb für die Region von Indien durchgeführt. Die Verteilung der Vertikalgeschwindigkeiten und des Niederschlages werden besprochen.
