Duane E. Waliser,Mitchell W. Moncrieff,David Burridge,Andreas H. Fink,Dave Gochis,Bhupendra Nath Goswami,Bhupendra Nath Goswami,Bin Guan,Patrick A. Harr,Julian T. Heming,Huang Hsuing Hsu,Christian Jakob,Matthew A. Janiga,Richard H. Johnson,Sarah C. Jones,Peter Knippertz,José A. Marengo,Hanh Nguyen,Mick Pope,Yolande L. Serra,Chris D. Thorncroft,Matthew C. Wheeler,Robert Wood,Sandra E. Yuter +23 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight the diverse array of scientifically interesting and socially important weather and climate events in the year of tropical convection (YOTC) and use these constructs to advance the characterization, modeling, parameterization, and prediction of multiscale tropical convections, including relevant two-way interactions between tropical and extratropical systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contributions of Convectively Coupled Equatorial Rossby Waves and Kelvin Waves to the Real-Time Multivariate MJO Indices
TL;DR: In this article, the real-time multivariate (RMM) Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) indices have been widely applied to diagnose and track the progression of the MJO.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atlantic Tropical Cyclogenesis: A Three-Way Interaction between an African Easterly Wave, Diurnally Varying Convection, and a Convectively Coupled Atmospheric Kelvin Wave
TL;DR: In this article, a three-way interaction between an African easterly wave (AEW), the diurnal cycle of convection over the Guinea Highlands (GHs), and a convectively coupled atmospheric equatorial Kelvin wave (CCKW) resulted in the genesis of Tropical Storm Debby over the eastern tropical Atlantic during late August 2006.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subseasonal Forecasts of Convectively Coupled Equatorial Waves and the MJO: Activity and Predictive Skill
Matthew A. Janiga,Carl J. Schreck,James A. Ridout,Maria Flatau,Neil P Barton,E. Joseph Metzger,Carolyn A. Reynolds +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the contribution of low-frequency (>100 d), Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO), and convectively coupled equatorial wave (CCEW) variability to the skill in predicting convection and winds in the tropics at weeks 1-3 is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
MJO Moisture Budget during DYNAMO in a Cloud-Resolving Model
Matthew A. Janiga,Chidong Zhang +1 more
TL;DR: The contribution of different physical processes and cloud types to the large-scale vertical moisture advection and apparent moisture sink observed by the DYNAMO field campaign northern sounding array during the passage of a Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) event are estimated using a cloud-resolving model as mentioned in this paper.
