Impacts of the Madden–Julian Oscillation on Australian Rainfall and Circulation [PDF]
Abstract Impacts of the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) on Australian rainfall and circulation are examined during all four seasons. The authors examine circulation anomalies and a number of different rainfall metrics, each composited contemporaneously for eight MJO phases derived from the real-time multivariate MJO index.

An interpretation of Australian rainfall projections [PDF]
The majority of climate models project a winter rainfall reduction over south‐eastern Australia (SEA), while some show a tendency for a summer rainfall increase. The dynamics for these rainfall changes are not clear. Using outputs from a climate model, we show that a summer rainfall increase is consistent with a large Tasman Sea warming promoting ...

Previous studies suggested the multi-millennial scale changes of Australian-Indonesian monsoon (AIM) rainfall, but little is known about their mechanism.

Linking ENSO to Synoptic Weather Systems in Eastern Australia
El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the main driver of interannual east Australian rainfall variability, but its link with rain‐producing synoptic weather systems is unclear.

Potential predictability of Australian seasonal rainfall [PDF]
The potential predictability of Australian seasonal mean rainfall at 800 stations is estimated using an analysis of variance method for the period 1957-2015 and for all twelve three-month seasons. The method estimates the contribution of the slow, potentially predictable, signal of the rainfall to the total inter-annual variance, after removing the ...

On the uncertainties associated with using gridded rainfall data as a proxy for observed [PDF]
Gridded rainfall datasets are used in many hydrological and climatological studies, in Australia and elsewhere, including for hydroclimatic forecasting, climate attribution studies and climate model performance assessments.

Water balance complexities in ephemeral catchments with different land uses: Insights from monitoring and distributed hydrologic modeling [PDF]
Although ephemeral catchments are widespread in arid and semiarid climates, the relationship of their water balance with climate, geology, topography, and land cover is poorly known.

Estimating urban flood risk – uncertainty in design criteria [PDF]
The design of urban stormwater infrastructure is generally performed assuming that climate is static. For engineering practitioners, stormwater infrastructure is designed using a peak flow method, such as the Rational Method as outlined in the ...

Fundamental Ingredients of Australian Rainfall Extremes
AbstractSatellite observations of Australian rainfall are used with reanalysis fields to identify the fundamental ingredients that distinguish extreme rain days from non‐extreme rain days. We analyze regions from the tropics to the mid‐latitudes, seeking to address whether regions with very different large‐scale circulations have common factors ...

Canonical Correlation Analysis of Global Climate Elements and Rainfall in the West Java Regions
Indonesia has a diversity of climate influenced by several global phenomena such as El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), and Asian-Australian Monsoon.
