MODIS-derived green Noctiluca blooms in the upper Gulf of Thailand: Algorithm development and seasonal variation mapping

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
In recent decades, red tides of non-toxic harmful algal blooms have frequently occurred in monsoon-influenced tropical areas, particularly the green form of Noctiluca scintillans (hereafter green Noctiluca). However, our understanding of the mechanism of

Revisiting the ENSO–monsoonal rainfall relationship: new insights based on an objective determination of the Asian summer monsoon duration

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
Traditionally, the boreal summer monsoon season is regarded as a fixed period of June–September (JJAS). In fact, the monsoon commencement and termination are not fixed to the annual cycle, thus the monsoon duration exhibits remarkable variations.

An interdecadal extension of the Indo-Pacific warm pool and its strengthened influence on the South China Sea summer monsoon since the late 1980s

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
In this study, the interdecadal change in the size of the Indo-Pacific warm pool (IPWP) and its connection with the intensity of the South China Sea summer monsoon (SCSSM) in May are investigated.

Archetypal Analysis: Mining Weather and Climate Extremes [PDF]

, 2017
Conventional analysis methods in weather and climate science (e.g., EOF analysis) exhibit a number of drawbacks including scaling and mixing. These methods focus mostly on the bulk of the probability distribution of the system in state space and overlook

Response of the West African Monsoon to the Madden–Julian Oscillation [PDF]

, 2009
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

Indian summer monsoon: Extreme events, historical changes, and role of anthropogenic forcings

WIREs Climate Change, 2019
The South Asian summer monsoon is a complex coupled human‐natural system that poses unique challenges for understanding its evolution alongside increasing anthropogenic activities. Rapid and substantial changes in land‐use, land‐management and industrial

Dominance of summer monsoon flash droughts in India

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
Flash droughts intensify rapidly after onset and cause short-term but devastating impacts on agriculture and the ecosystem. However, the drivers and characteristics of flash droughts in India have not been examined.

Temperature and Farm Labor in Nigeria

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We estimate the impact of temperature shocks on the composition of farm labor in rural Nigeria using a nationally representative household panel survey. Leveraging plausibly exogenous year‐to‐year variation in growing season temperatures, we find that warmer temperatures significantly alter farm labor composition, prompting a substantial shift

Short-term fate of phytodetritus in sediments across the arabian sea oxygen minimum zone [PDF]

, 2007
The short-term fate of phytodetritus was investigated across the Pakistan margin of the Arabian Sea at water depths ranging from 140 to 1850 m, encompassing the oxygen minimum zone (~100–1100 m).
