The Strengthening Relationship between ENSO and Northeast Monsoon Rainfall over Sri Lanka and Southern India
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recently, it was reported that the relationship of the Indian southwest monsoon rainfall with El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) has weakened since around 1980. Here, it is reported that in contrast, the relationship ...
Reanalyses-Based Tropospheric Temperature Estimates: Uncertainties in the Context of Global Climate Change Detection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Uncertainties in estimates of tropospheric mean temperature were investigated in the context of climate change detection through comparisons of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction?National Center for Atmospheric ...
Shifts in the Statistics of Daily Rainfall in South America Conditional on ENSO Phase
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: There are several well-documented studies showing the shifts in seasonal mean rainfall and temperature conditional on El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phase. Here the shifts in the seasonal histograms of daily rainfall ...
Tilting the Odds in Maize Yields: How Climate Information Can Help Manage risks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It goes without saying that most crops are sensitive to variations in weather and climate. When the influence of the El Niño?Southern Oscillation on rainfall for several regions of the world was first discovered climate ...
Advances in Climate Analysis and Monitoring: Reflections on 40 Years of Climate Diagnostics and Prediction Workshops
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: e examine the progress in the analysis of climate variability through the lens of a 40-year series of annual Climate Diagnostics and Prediction Workshops initiated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ...
An objective Analysis of the Boundary-Layer Thermodynamic Structure During GATE. Part II: Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Profiles of potential temperature, specific humidity and moist static energy are analyzed using the objective classification method described in Part I (Jalickee and Ropelewski, 1979). These profiles, extending from the ...
North American Precipitation and Temperature Patterns Associated with the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes an investigation of the ?typical? North American precipitation and temperature patterns associated with the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Monthly surface temperature and precipitation data are ...
Analysis of the Convectively Modified GATE Boundary Layer Using in situand Acoustic Sounder Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A boundary-layer categorization scheme based on GATE acoustic sounder data stratifies surface data and tethered balloon data from the NOAA research ship Oceanographer. The results indicate a clear increase in the sensible ...
An Objective Analysis of the Boundary-Layer Thermodynamic Structure During GATE. Part I: Method
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for the analysis and objective classification of meteorological data is presented and illustrated. The first step in this approach is the application of an efficient method to describe the data both qualitatively ...
