On the Maintenance of Stationary Eddies in Terms of the Streamfunction Budget Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The upper-level seasonal-mean eddy streamfunction (??E) is often used to portray atmospheric stationary eddies. A budget analysis of the 200 mb ??E field simulated by the NCAR Community Climate Model revealed that a ...
On the Relationship between the Streamfunction and Velocity Potential of the Madden–Julian Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The streamfunction and velocity potential variances associated with the Madden?Julian oscillation are explained substantially by their zonal wavenumber-1 components, which are used to measure quantitatively the phase ...
Association between Northward-Moving Tropical Cyclones and Southwesterly Flows Modulated by Intraseasonal Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ropical cyclones (TCs) of a particular track type move northward along the open oceans to the east of Taiwan and later pass over or near northern Taiwan. Their northward movement may be associated with intensified monsoon ...
The 10–20-Day Mode of the 1979 Indian Monsoon: Its Relation with the Time Variation of Monsoon Rainfall
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The synoptic structure of the 10?20-day monsoon mode and this intraseasonal monsoon mode's relationship with the Indian monsoon rainfall are examined with the 1979 summer First GARP Global Experiment IIIb data of the ...
Interdecadal Variability of Summer Rainfall in Taiwan Associated with Tropical Cyclones and Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study investigates interdecadal variability of summer (June?August) rainfall in Taiwan for the 1950?2008 period. Summer rainfall in Taiwan is partitioned into two components: tropical cyclone (TC) rainfall caused by ...
Tropical Cyclone– and Monsoon-Induced Rainfall Variability in Taiwan
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigates the interannual variability of tropical cyclone (TC)- and monsoon-induced rainfall (P) in Taiwan during July?September for the period 1950?2002. To examine the relative effects of TCs and monsoons, ...
Heavy Rainfall Induced by Tropical Cyclones across Northern Taiwan and Associated Intraseasonal Oscillation Modulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ropical cyclones (TCs) moving northwestward/westward across northern Taiwan are defined to have a type-2 track. This study aims to analyze heavy rainfall associated with type-2 TCs in Taiwan, focusing on the modulation ...
The 12–24-Day Mode of Global Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Global precipitation estimates derived from satellite data at the Goddard Laboratory for Atmospheres for 1979?80 were used to explore time variations in global precipitation. Time series of the area-averaged precipitation ...
Coherent Interdecadal Variability of Tropical Cyclone Rainfall and Seasonal Rainfall in Taiwan during October
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: y separating total rainfall into tropical cyclone (TC) rainfall caused by TC passage and seasonal rainfall associated with moisture transport of prevailing seasonal flows, this study examines the interdecadal variability ...
The Effect of Horizontal Resolution on Systematic Errors of the GLA Forecast Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Systematic prediction errors of the Goddard Laboratory for Atmospheres (GLA) forecast system are reduced when the higher-resolution (2° ? 2.5°) model version is used. Based on a budget analysis of the 200-mb eddy streamfunction, ...
