Climate dynamics

the latitude where atmospheric meridional energy transport vanishes, used to predict the position of the tropical rain belt from hemispheric energy budgets.

In climate dynamics, energy flux equator refers to the latitude where atmospheric meridional energy transport vanishes, used to predict the position of the tropical rain belt from hemispheric energy budgets. This meaning comes from Bischoff (2014) in Journal of Climate.[1]
