Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Variability in the Tropical Indian Ocean
Toshio Yamagata,Swadhin K. Behera,Jing-Jia Luo,Sébastien Masson,Mark R. Jury,Suryachandra A. Rao +5 more
TL;DR: The Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) is a natural ocean-atmosphere coupled mode that plays important roles in seasonal and interannual climate variations as mentioned in this paper, which is distinguished as a dipole in the SST anomalies that are coupled to zonal winds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climatic variability and change over southern Africa: a reflection on underlying processes:
Simon J. Mason,Mark R. Jury +1 more
TL;DR: Quasi-periodicities in annual rainfall totals over southern Africa have been identified; in particular, an approximately 18-year cycle may be related to interdecadal variability in sea surface temp as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low Atlantic hurricane activity in the 1970s and 1980s compared to the past 270 years
Johan Nyberg,Björn A. Malmgren,Amos Winter,Mark R. Jury,K. Halimeda Kilbourne,K. Halimeda Kilbourne,Terrence M. Quinn,Terrence M. Quinn +7 more
TL;DR: A record of the frequency of major Atlantic hurricanes over the past 270 years is constructed using proxy records of vertical wind shear and sea surface temperature from corals and a marine sediment core, indicating that the average frequency ofmajor hurricanes decreased gradually from the 1760s until the early 1990s.
Journal ArticleDOI
Economic Impacts of Climate Variability in South Africa and Development of Resource Prediction Models
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of food and water supplies and economic growth in South Africa leads to the realization that climate variability plays a major role in agricultural yield, river flows, and GDP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climatic trends over Ethiopia: regional signals and drivers
TL;DR: In this article, the observed and projected climatic trends over Ethiopia, through analysis of temperature and rainfall records and related meteorological fields, were analyzed from coupled model simulations drawn from the IPCC 4th Assessment.
