RISStructure of SST and Surface Wind Variability during Indian Ocean Dipole Mode Events: COADS Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A study of the detailed spatiotemporal characteristics of the Indian Ocean dipole (IOD) mode in SST and surface winds using available observations from 1958 till 1997 is reported. The analysis is used to address several ...
Individual and Combined Influences of ENSO and the Indian Ocean Dipole on the Indian Summer Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The relative influences of the ENSO and Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) events on the Indian summer rainfall were studied using observational data and an atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM). The composite analysis of ...
Tropical Indian Ocean Variability in the IPCC Twentieth-Century Climate Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The twentieth-century simulations using by 17 coupled ocean?atmosphere general circulation models (CGCMs) submitted to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change?s Fourth Assessment Report (IPCC AR4) are evaluated for ...
Role of Narrow Mountains in Large-Scale Organization of Asian Monsoon Convection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Asian summer monsoon is organized into distinct convection centers, but the mechanism for this organization is not well understood. Analysis of new satellite observations reveals that narrow mountain ranges are an ...
