Synoptic-scale Disturbances

Synoptic-Scale Disturbances is a meteorological phenomenon characterized as a transient, organized atmospheric system spanning approximately 1,000 to 3,000 kilometers that emerges from instabilities in the large-scale flow and propagates within the mid- to lower troposphere, primarily influencing day-to-day weather patterns in the context of baroclinic dynamics and African easterly wave activity.
