THE JOINT AEROSOL- MONSOON EXPERIMENT A New Challenge for Monsoon Climate Research
K. M. Lau,Veerabhadran Ramanathan,Zhanqing Li,Si-Chee Tsay,C. Hsu,R. Sikka,Brent N. Holben,Daren Lu,Gianni Tartari,M. Chin,Petra Koudelova,Hongjin Chen,Yaoming Ma,Jianping Huang,Kenji Taniguchi,Renjian Zhang +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the scientific rationale and challenges for an integrated approach to study the interactions between aerosol and monsoon water cycle dynamics, with enhanced observations of the physical and chemical properties, sources and sinks, and long-range transport of aerosols, in conjunction with meteorological a...
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of definitions of Indian summer monsoon onset: Better representation of rapid transitions of atmospheric conditions
Kenji Taniguchi,Toshio Koike +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the representativeness of Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) onset described by three variables spatially averaged over the Arabian Sea, and find that the onset criterion based on the wind speed is easier, clearer, and successfully screens out Bogus onset.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of upper tropospheric warming around the Tibetan Plateau at the onset phase of the Asian summer monsoon
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the mechanism of upper tropospheric warming using the climatology derived from the reanalysis data and found that adiabatic subsidence plays an important role in the temperature increase from late April to mid-June.
Journal ArticleDOI
Initial CEOP-based Review of the Prediction Skill of Operational General Circulation Models and Land Surface Models
Kun Yang,Mohamed Rasmy,Surendra Rauniyar,Toshio Koike,Kenji Taniguchi,Katsunori Tamagawa,Petra Koudelova,Masaru Kitsuregawa,Toshihiro Nemoto,Masaki Yasukawa,Eiji Ikoma,Michael G. Bosilovich,Steve Williams +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the performance of five GCMs and three Land Surface Models (LSMs) on the CEP data archived in the Coordinated Enhanced Observing Period (CEOP) project.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal variation of cloud activity and atmospheric profiles over the eastern part of the Tibetan Plateau
Kenji Taniguchi,Toshio Koike +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, in situ radiosonde observation data revealed a definite seasonal progression of cumulus activity over the Tibetan Plateau, and satellite data and reanalysis data showed a consistent correspondence of the seasonal variation of Cumulus activity, total precipitable water content, and vertical instability of the atmosphere.
