Predicting Extreme Phases of the Indian Summer Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Extreme active and break phases of the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) often bring about devastating floods and severe draughts. Here it is shown that these extreme phases exhibit distinctive precursory circulation conditions ...
Circumglobal Teleconnection in the Northern Hemisphere Summer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Analysis of the 56-yr NCEP?NCAR reanalysis data reveals a recurrent circumglobal teleconnection (CGT) pattern in the summertime midlatitude circulation of the Northern Hemisphere. This pattern represents the second leading ...
Intraseasonal Teleconnection between the Summer Eurasian Wave Train and the Indian Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigated the most recurrent coupled pattern of intraseasonal variability between midlatitude circulation and the Indian summer monsoon (ISM). The leading singular vector decomposition (SVD) pattern reveals ...
Influences of Large-Scale Circulation and Atmospheric Rivers on U.S. Winter Precipitation beyond ENSO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Temperature Change on the Antarctic Peninsula Linked to the Tropical Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ignificant summer warming over the eastern Antarctic Peninsula in the last 50 years has been attributed to a strengthening of the circumpolar westerlies, widely believed to be anthropogenic in origin. On the western side ...
Objective Definition of the Indian Summer Monsoon Onset
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The onset of the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) over the southern tip of the Indian peninsula [also known as monsoon onset over Kerala (MOK)] has been considered the beginning of India?s rainy season. The Indian Meteorological ...
The Global Monsoon Variability Simulated by CMIP3 Coupled Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The global monsoon climate variability during the second half of the twentieth century simulated by 21 coupled global climate models (CGCMs) that participated in the World Climate Research Programme?s Coupled Model ...
Influence of Sea Surface Warming on Environmental Factors Affecting Long-Term Changes of Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Formation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Despite the observed high correlation between the Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) and the Atlantic tropical cyclone (TC) activity, interpretation of this relationship remains uncertain. This study suggests that the ...
Image-and-Skeleton-Based Parameterized Approach to Real-Time Identification of Construction Workers’ Unsafe Behaviors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Workers’ unsafe behaviors are one of the main causes for construction accidents. Fully understanding the causes of unsafe behaviors on site will help to prevent them, thus reducing construction accidents. The accurate and ...
Tropical–Extratropical Teleconnections in Boreal Summer: Observed Interannual Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: aximum covariance analysis is performed on the fields of boreal summer, tropical rainfall, and Northern Hemisphere (NH) 200-hPa height for the 62-yr period of record of 1948?2009. The leading mode, which appears preferentially ...
