Abstract: A new East Asian winter monsoon index, which reflects the 300-hPa meridional wind shear associated with the jet stream, was defined to describe the variability of the winter monsoon in midlatitude East Asia. This index ...

Abstract: new method of producing sea surface temperature (SST) data for numerical weather prediction is suggested, which is obtained from the assimilation of satellite-derived SST into an atmosphere?ocean mixed layer coupled model. ...

Abstract: he effect of Langmuir circulation (LC) on vertical mixing is parameterized in the ocean mixed layer model (OMLM), based on the analysis of large-eddy simulation (LES) results. Parameterization of LC effects is carried out ...

Abstract: A new northeast Asian summer monsoon index is introduced to investigate the characteristics of the northeast Asian summer rainfall variation, including Korea, Japan, and northeast China, and its possible connection to the ...

Abstract: The influence of the Pacific sea surface temperature (SST) on the characteristic variability of boreal wintertime atmospheric circulation among El Niño events is investigated by carrying out singular value decomposition ...
