This study explores the extent to which the dynamical structure of the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO), its evolution, and its connection to diabatic heating can be described in terms of potential vorticity (PV). The signature PV structure of the MJO is an equatorial quadrupole of cyclonic and anticyclonic PV that tilts westward and poleward. This...
