Convectively Coupled Equatorial Waves: Analysis of Clouds and Temperature in the Wavenumber–Frequency Domain
TL;DR: In this article, a wavenumber-frequency spectrum analysis is performed for all longitudes in the domain 158S−158N using a long (;18 years) twice-daily record of satellite-observed outgoing longwave radiation (OLR), a good proxy for deep tropical convection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global climatic anomalies associated with extremes in the Southern Oscillation
George N. Kiladis,Henry F. Diaz +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, large regions of coherent, significant signals are shown to exist for both extremes of the Southern Oscillation, with warm event signals generally opposite to those during cold events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Convectively-coupled equatorial waves
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used convectively coupled equatorial waves (CCEWs) to simulate tropical rainfall variability in the equatorial beta plane of a tropical weather system, and found that CCEWs display a large degree of self-similarity over a surprisingly wide range of scales.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tropical Intraseasonal Variability in 14 IPCC AR4 Climate Models. Part I: Convective Signals
Jialin Lin,George N. Kiladis,Brian E. Mapes,Klaus M. Weickmann,Kenneth R. Sperber,Wuyin Lin,Matthew C. Wheeler,Siegfried D. Schubert,Anthony D. Del Genio,Leo J. Donner,Seita Emori,Jean Francois Gueremy,Frédéric Hourdin,Philip J. Rasch,Erich Roeckner,John Scinocca +15 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the tropical intraseasonal variability, especially the fidelity of Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) simulations, in 14 coupled general circulation models participating in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4).
Journal ArticleDOI
Zonal and Vertical Structure of the Madden–Julian Oscillation
TL;DR: In this paper, a statistical study of the three-dimensional structure of the Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) is carried out by projecting dynamical fields from reanalysis and radiosonde data onto space-time filtered outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) data.
