Primary and successive events in the Madden–Julian Oscillation [PDF]
Conventional analyses of the MJO tend to produce a repeating cycle, such that any particular feature cannot be unambiguously attributed to the current or previous event.

Madden–Julian Oscillation-induced extreme rainfalls constrained by global warming mitigation
The sixth assessment report of the IPCC indicates low-to-high confidence in trends of extreme rainfall with regional inconsistency in the tropics, where a key phenomenon causing intra-seasonal variations in weather is the Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO).

Modulation of station rainfall over the western Pacific by the Madden-Julian oscillation [PDF]
Rainfall data from 140 stations in the PACRAIN network in the tropical western Pacific are analysed to assess the signal due to the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO). During northern winter, the station rainfall difference between the wet and dry phases of

Response of the West African Monsoon to the Madden–Julian Oscillation [PDF]
Observations show that rainfall over West Africa is influenced by the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO). A number of mechanisms have been suggested: 1) forcing by equatorial waves; 2) enhanced monsoon moisture supply; and 3) increased African easterly wave

Intraseasonal to interannual variability of Kelvin wave momentum fluxes as derived from high-resolution radiosonde data [PDF]
Observational estimates of Kelvin wave momentum fluxes in the tropical lower stratosphere remain challenging. Here we extend a method based on linear wave theory to estimate daily time series of these momentum fluxes from high-resolution radiosonde ...

Ocean Rossby waves as a triggering mechanism for primary Madden-Julian events [PDF]
The Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) is sporadic, with episodes of cyclical activity interspersed with inactive periods. However, it remains unclear what may trigger a Madden–Julian (MJ) event which is not immediately preceded by any MJO activity: a ...

Dynamical ocean forcing of the Madden-Julian Oscillation at lead times of up to five months [PDF]
We show that a simple three-dimensional ocean model linearised about a resting basic state can accurately simulate the dynamical ocean response to wind forcing by the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO).

Interdecadal variability of intensity of the Madden–Julian oscillation
The interdecadal variability of intensity of the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) during boreal winter was investigated based on two reanalysis datasets (NOAA 20CR and ERA‐20C).

Development of convection along the SPCZ within a Madden-Julian oscillation [PDF]
A subtropical Rossby wave propagation mechanism is proposed to account for the poleward and eastward progression of intraseasonal convective anomalies along the South Pacific Convergence Zone (SPCZ) that is observed in a significant proportion of Madden ...

Impacts of the Madden–Julian oscillation on precipitation extremes in Indonesia [PDF]
The influence of the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) on the precipitation extremes in Indonesia during the rainy season (October to April) has been evaluated using the daily station rain gauge data from 1987 to 2017 and the gridded Asian Precipitation ...
