Years of the Maritime Continent [PDF]
Abstract Years of the Maritime Continent (YMC) is a multiyear international program with participants from over 15 countries. Its overarching goal is to expedite the progress toward improving understanding and prediction of the local oceanic and atmospheric multiscale variability of the Indo‐Pacific Maritime Continent (MC) and its ...

The progression of the boreal winter monsoon through the western Maritime Continent as differentiated by ENSO phase [PDF]
The impact of global ENSO on the regional monsoon onset over the Maritime Continent is examined, using satellite-derived scatterometer surface winds over the sea channel from the South China Sea, through the Karimata Strait into the Java Sea. An index

Change in Salinity of Indonesian Upper Water in the Southeastern Indian Ocean during Argo Period
The change in salinity of Indonesian Upper Water (IUW) in the Indian Ocean has been examined during 2004–2020 based on the Argo product. Monthly salinity fields reveal a contrast of IUW salinity changes between two time periods (2004–2013 and 2014–2020 ...

Wet and Dry Cold Surges Over the Maritime Continent
AbstractCold surges are synoptic weather systems that occur over the Maritime Continent during the boreal winter. They are characterized by the strengthening of prevailing low‐level northerly to north‐easterly winds, temperature falls of a few degrees over several days, and in some cases, heavy prolonged rainfall and flooding.

Island Rainfall Enhancement in the Maritime Continent
AbstractThe hypothesis that the islands of the Maritime Continent (MC) enhance total rainfall and time‐mean upward motion is tested using a convection‐permitting regional model. Sensitivity experiments with the islands removed greatly diminish both rainfall and upward motion, supporting the hypothesis.

Active and weakening MJO events in the Maritime Continent [PDF]
AbstractTo better understand the Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) in the Maritime Continent (MC), events from 1980 to 2019 were classified as active or weakening according to propagation characteristics and amplitude changes in two leading indices, the Real-time Multivariate MJO (RMM) index and Outgoing Longwave Radiation (OLR) MJO Index (OMI).

Scale Interactions between the MJO and the Western Maritime Continent [PDF]
Abstract State-of-the-art regional climate model simulations that are able to resolve key mesoscale circulations are used, for the first time, to understand the interaction between the large-scale convective environment of the MJO and processes governing the strong diurnal cycle over the islands of the Maritime Continent (MC). Convection

Precipitation regime changes in the maritime continent [PDF]
This thesis focuses on changes in the precipitation regime in the Maritime Continent. The Maritime Continent is the region between the Indian and Pacific oceans consisting of the Indonesian and Philippine archipelagos and countless other smaller islands. The Maritime Continent connects the Indian and Pacific oceans and plays a crucial role in the world’

The Indo‐Pacific Maritime Continent Barrier Effect on MJO Ensemble Prediction
The barrier effect of the Indo‐Pacific Maritime Continent (MC) on the Austral summertime Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) is explored using retrospective forecasts from subseasonal‐to‐seasonal (S2S) prediction models.
