Combining these equations for the mass and energy balances of the Hadley cell, we can write the ratio of the ITCZ area to the area of the descent region in terms of the gross moist stabilities in each region, the respective net energy inputs, and the mean advection and transient - eddy terms in the energy budget:
Consequently, the vertical velocity in the descent region is a function not only of the net energy input to the atmosphere and the gross moist stability, but also of the energy transport by transient eddies and mean advection.
The kinetic energy generated by horizontal pressure gradients dissipates in smaller - scale eddies and ultimately converts to heat.
This heat provides the energy to create the eddies that drive the jet streams.
For example, equatorward - moving weather systems — known as «transient eddies» — fulfill much of the poleward energy export required to balance the net energy input, with the energy transport associated with vertical motion times gross moist stability less important than in the ITCZ.
For example, increases in net energy input to the tropical atmosphere tend to narrow the ITCZ whereas increases in energy transport by transient eddies tend to widen the ITCZ.
