Modulation of Daily Precipitation over East Africa by the Madden–Julian Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: patiotemporal variability in East African precipitation affects the livelihood of tens of millions of people. From the perspective of floods, flash droughts, and agriculture, variability on intraseasonal time scales is a ...
Modulation of East African boreal fall rainfall: combined effects of the Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO) and El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Forward-Looking Assimilation of MODIS-Derived Snow-Covered Area into a Land Surface Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Snow cover over land has a significant impact on the surface radiation budget, turbulent energy fluxes to the atmosphere, and local hydrological fluxes. For this reason, inaccuracies in the representation of snow-covered ...
Subseasonal Analysis of Precipitation Variability in the Blue Nile River Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Ethiopian portion of the Blue Nile River basin is subject to significant interannual variability in precipitation. As this variability has implications for local food security and transboundary water resources, numerous ...
Are the Central Andes Mountains a Warming Hot Spot?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: lobal climate model simulations project that the tropical Andes Mountains of South America, which are particularly vulnerable to climate change because of a reliance on snow and glacial melt for freshwater resources, will ...
ENSO teleconnection to eastern African summer rainfall in global climate models: Role of the Tropical Easterly Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Global Climate Models (GCMs) are critical tools for understanding and projecting climate variability and change, yet the performance of these models is notoriously weak over much of tropical Africa. To improve this situation, ...
The Madden–Julian Oscillation’s Influence on Spring Rainy Season Precipitation over Equatorial West Africa
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper characterizes the influence of the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) on spring rainy season (March?June) convection variability over equatorial West Africa (EWA) and investigates mechanisms of association. It is ...
