The Development of Upper-Tropospheric Wind over the Western Hemisphere in Association with MJO Convective Initiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the structure and driving mechanisms of upper-tropospheric intraseasonal zonal wind anomalies over the Western Hemisphere (WH) during the convective initiation of the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) over ...
The Role of Interactions between Multiscale Circulations on the Observed Zonally Averaged Zonal Wind Variability Associated with the Madden–Julian Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he mechanisms driving the upper-tropospheric zonal mean intraseasonal zonal wind associated with the Madden?Julian oscillation are examined through budget analysis during boreal winter. To diagnose the role of nonlinear ...
The Diurnal Cycle of Tropical Cloudiness and Rainfall Associated with the Madden–Julian Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study examines the diurnal cycle of rainfall and cloudiness associated with the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) using TRMM rainfall rate and ISCCP multilevel cloud fraction data. There are statistically ...
The Diurnal Variability of Precipitating Cloud Populations during DYNAMO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study uses high-resolution rainfall estimates from the S-Polka radar during the DYNAMO field campaign to examine variability of the diurnal cycle of rainfall associated with MJO convection over the Indian ...
The Contribution of Mesoscale Convective Systems to the Coastal Rainfall Maximum over West Africa
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Equatorial Waves and the Skill of NCEP and ECMWF Numerical Weather Prediction Systems
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractDespite decades of research on the role of moist convective processes in large-scale tropical dynamics, tropical forecast skill in operational models is still deficient when compared to the extratropics, even at ...

Advancing Science and Services during the 2015/16 El Niño: The NOAA El Niño Rapid Response Field Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractForecasts by mid-2015 for a strong El Niño during winter 2015/16 presented an exceptional scientific opportunity to accelerate advances in understanding and predictions of an extreme climate event and its impacts ...
