Abstract: The authors investigate the effects of tropical cyclones (TCs) on seasonal and interannual rainfall variability over the western North Pacific (WNP) by using rainfall data at 22 stations. The TC-induced rainfall at each ...

Abstract: uper Cyclone Pam (2015) formed in the central tropical Pacific under conditions that included El Niño Modoki and the passage of a convectively-enhanced phase of the Madden?Julian Oscillation (MJO) in the western Pacific. ...

Abstract: his report describes the in situ observed evolution of the atmospheric profile during an event of the boreal summer intraseasonal variation (BSISV) in the tropical western Pacific Ocean. The convectively active region of ...

Abstract: In this study, the authors focused on the seasonal variations of precipitation properties over the western Pacific, particularly those associated with the wind direction of the monsoon. An observational project over Peleliu ...

Abstract: AbstractThe intensity and inner-core structure of an extremely intense tropical cyclone, Typhoon Haiyan (2013), were examined using real-time ground-based Doppler radar products from the Guiuan radar over the period of ...

Abstract: low modulation of interannual variability and its relationship to El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is investigated for the period of 1870?2007 using shipboard surface meteorological observations along a frequently ...

Abstract: In this study, cloud profiling radar and lidar were used to determine the frequency distribution of the base heights of cloudy layers with little (or no) falling condensate particles. The data were obtained from stationary ...

Abstract: egional patterns of tropical Indo-Pacific climate change are investigated over the last six decades based on a synthesis of in situ observations and ocean model simulations, with a focus on physical consistency among sea ...
