Role of the Maritime Continent in the remote influence of Atlantic Niño on the Pacific [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2023
Atlantic Niño, the dominant climate mode in the equatorial Atlantic, is known to remotely force a La Niña-like response in the Pacific, potentially affecting seasonal climate predictions.

The typhoon-induced drying of the Maritime Continent. [PDF]

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2020
SignificanceMuch work has been done to quantify tropical cyclone (TC)-induced precipitation and its role in determining flood events. We identify the role of tropical cyclones in reducing precipitation over particular areas of the tropical domain.

Maritime Continent water cycle regulates low-latitude chokepoint of global ocean circulation [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2019
The freshwater surface layer from the south China seas weakens the Indonesian throughflow during boreal winter, but the impact of the monsoon water cycle of the maritime continent on this freshwater plug is unknown.

Maritime continent coastlines controlling Earth’s climate

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2018
During the Monsoon Asian Hydro−Atmosphere Scientific Research and Prediction Initiative (MAHASRI; 2006–16), we carried out two projects over the Indonesian maritime continent (IMC), constructing the Hydrometeorological Array for Intraseasonal Variation ...

Madden-Julian Oscillation Enhances Phytoplankton Biomass in the Maritime Continent. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
AbstractIn addition to monsoon-driven rainfall, the Maritime Continent (MC) is subject to heavy precipitation caused by the Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO), a tropical convection-coupled circulation that propagates eastward from the Indian to the Pacific Ocean.

Dynamical and Thermodynamical Influences of the Maritime Continent on ENSO Evolution. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2018
AbstractEl Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) exerts tremendous influences on the global climate. Through dynamic lifting and thermal forcing, the Maritime Continent (MC) plays an important role in affecting global atmospheric circulation. In spite of the extensive studies on ENSO mechanisms, the influence of MC on the characteristics of ENSO life cycle ...

Nonstationary Changes in Annual Rainfall over Indonesia’s Maritime Continent

Advances in Meteorology
The investigation into changing rainfall patterns in the Indonesian Maritime Continent (IMC) involved testing for trends, step changes, and variance nonstationarity using the Mann–Kendall, Pettitt, and White tests, respectively. The analysis covered data

Vertical distribution of aerosols over the Maritime Continent during El Niño [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018
The vertical distribution of aerosols over Southeast Asia, a critical factor impacting aerosol lifetime, radiative forcing, and precipitation, is examined for the 2006 post El Niño fire burning season. Combining these measurements with remotely sensed

Western North Pacific tropical cyclones suppress Maritime Continent rainfall

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science
It is generally believed that the Maritime Continent (MC) is rarely affected by tropical cyclones (TCs) due to its equatorial location. However, this study reveals that TCs in the tropical western North Pacific can significantly suppress rainfall over ...

Modes of vertical thermodynamic and wind variability over the Maritime Continent [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2017
The Maritime Continent (MC) is an exceedingly complex region from the perspective of both its meteorology and its aerosol characteristics. Convection in the MC is ubiquitous and assumes a wide variety of forms under the influence of an evolving large ...
