, 1990 In this contribution the modelling activities of the climate research group at the Max—Planck—Institut fuer Meteorologie (MPI) concerning the El Nifio/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon are briefly reviewed. The studies described encompass the investigation of the atmospheric response to observed sea surface temperature (SST) distributions, the ...

The reconstructed Indonesian warm pool sea surface temperatures from tree rings and corals: Linkages to Asian monsoon drought and El Niño–Southern Oscillation [PDF]
, 2006 [ 1] The west Pacific warm pool is the heat engine for the globe's climate system. Its vast moisture and heat exchange profoundly impact conditions in the tropics and higher latitudes.

Modelling monsoons: understanding and predicting current and future behaviour [PDF]
, 2011 The global monsoon system is so varied and complex that understanding and predicting its diverse behaviour remains a challenge that will occupy modellers for many years to come.

Hail climatology and its possible attributions in Beijing, China: 1980-2021
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023 Hail hazards have caused severe losses and threatened the safety of residents in Beijing, the Chinese capital city. A refined analysis of the spatial and temporal distribution of hailstorms in Beijing can help to evaluate the risk of hail and guide the ...

The role of the basic state in the ENSO-monsoon relationship and implications for predictability [PDF]
, 2005 The impact of systematic model errors on a coupled simulation of the Asian Summer monsoon and its interannual variability is studied. Although the mean monsoon climate is reasonably well captured, systematic errors in the equatorial Pacific mean that the

Interannual variability of the Tropical Atlantic independent of and associated with ENSO: Part II. The South Tropical Atlantic [PDF]
, 2006 Two dominant ocean-atmosphere modes of variability on interannual timescales were defined in Part I of this work, namely, the North Tropical Atlantic (NTA) and South Tropical Atlantic (STA) modes.

Modes of ocean variability in the tropical Pacific as derived from Geosat altimetry [PDF]
, 1994 Satellite-derived (Geosat altimetry) sea surface height anomalies for the period November 1986 to September 1989 were investigated in order to extract the dominant modes of climate variability in the tropical Pacific.

Potential of Equatorial Atlantic Variability to Enhance El Nino Prediction [PDF]
, 2013 Extraordinarily strong El Niño events, such as those of 1982/83 and 1997/98, have been poorly predicted by operational seasonal forecasts made before boreal spring, despite significant advances in understanding, improved models, and enhanced ...

Monsoon drought over Java, Indonesia, during the past two centuries [PDF]
, 2006 Monsoon droughts, which often coincide with El Nino warm events, can have profound impacts on the populations of Southeast Asia. Improved understanding and prediction of such events can be aided by high-resolution proxy climate records, but these are ...
