Deep Intraseasonal Variability in the Central Equatorial Atlantic [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 2018
AbstractBesides the zonal flow that dominates the seasonal and long-term variability in the equatorial Atlantic, energetic intraseasonal meridional velocity fluctuations are observed in large parts of the water column. We use 15 years of partly full-depth velocity data from an equatorial mooring at 23°W to investigate intraseasonal variability and ...

The Intraseasonal and Interannual Variability of Arctic Temperature and Specific Humidity Inversions

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
Temperature and humidity inversions are common in the Arctic’s lower troposphere, and are a crucial component of the Arctic’s climate system. In this study, we quantify the intraseasonal oscillation of Arctic temperature and specific humidity

The Unique Role of the Intraseasonal Zonal Wind in March Over the Equatorial Western Pacific Contributes to Shaping the Subsequent ENSO Development

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The predictability of the El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is significantly limited by the spring predictability barrier (SPB). Our observational analysis suggests that considering high‐frequency wind components during the spring season may mitigate ...

Impact of Intraseasonal Oscillations on the Activity of Tropical Cyclones in Summer Over the South China Sea: Nonlocal Tropical Cyclones

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
In addition to tropical cyclones (TCs) locally formed in the South China Sea (SCS), there are also TCs that initially form over the Northwest Pacific (NWP) and move westward to enter the SCS (often called nonlocal TCs).

Skillful Prediction of Indian Monsoon Intraseasonal Precipitation Using Central Indian Ocean Mode and Machine Learning

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Monsoonal precipitation is dominated by intraseasonal variabilities, whose skillful prediction lead time is currently less than 5 days and remains a grand challenge. Here we show that an intrinsic variability in the Indian Ocean, the Central Indian Ocean

The Quasi-Biweekly Oscillation of Winter Precipitation Associated with ENSO over Southern China

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2018
Using ERA-interim Reanalysis data and observational data, the intraseasonal oscillation of the winter rainfall in southern China is studied. The mean square deviation of daily precipitation is used to express precipitation variability, and winter ...

Quasi-biweekly oscillations and midlatitude wave-train modulation of intraseasonal temperature variability over Tanzania during OND

open access: yesDiscover Atmosphere
Intraseasonal variability strongly influences East African climate, yet its impact on near-surface temperature has received limited attention compared to rainfall.

The Intraseasonal Variability of African Easterly Wave Energetics

open access: yesJournal of Climate, 2014
Abstract African easterly waves (AEWs) and associated perturbation kinetic energy (PKE) exhibit significant intraseasonal variability in tropical North Africa during boreal summer. Consistent with East Africa (e.g., east of Lake Chad) being an initiation region for AEWs, previous studies have shown that increased East African PKE ...

Tropical Intraseasonal Variability in the MRI-20km60L AGCM*

open access: yesJournal of Climate, 2009
Abstract This study documents the detailed characteristics of the tropical intraseasonal variability (TISV) in the MRI-20km60L AGCM that uses a variant of the Arakawa–Schubert cumulus parameterization. Mean states, power spectra, propagation features, leading EOF modes, horizontal and vertical structures, and seasonality associated with ...
