The boreal summer intraseasonal oscillation (BSISO) of the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) is one of the most prominent sources of short-term climate variability in the global monsoon system. Compared…
Ensemble Simulations of Asian–Australian Monsoon Variability by 11 AGCMs*
- Bin Wang, I. Kang, June‐Yi Lee
- Environmental Science
- 15 February 2004
Ensemble simulations of Asian-Australian monsoon (A-AM) anomalies were evaluated in 11 atmospheric general circulation models for the unprecedented El Nino period of September 1996-August 1998. The…
Interactive Feedback between ENSO and the Indian Ocean
Abstract A feedback process of the Indian Ocean SST on ENSO is investigated by using observed data and atmospheric GCM. It is suggested that warming in the Indian Ocean produces an easterly wind…
Current status of ENSO prediction skill in coupled ocean–atmosphere models
- E. Jin, J. Kinter, T. Yamagata
- Environmental Science
- 25 April 2008
The overall skill of ENSO prediction in retrospective forecasts made with ten different coupled GCMs is investigated. The coupled GCM datasets of the APCC/CliPAS and DEMETER projects are used for…
Intercomparison of the climatological variations of Asian summer monsoon precipitation simulated by 10 GCMs
Abstract. We assesses the overall performance of state-of-the-art atmospheric GCMs in simulating the climatological variations of summer monsoon rainfall over the Asian-Western Pacific region and the…
Application of MJO Simulation Diagnostics to Climate Models
- Daehyun Kim, K. Sperber, G. Zhang
- Environmental Science
- 1 December 2009
The ability of eight climate models to simulate the Madden‐Julian oscillation (MJO) is examined using diagnostics developed by the U.S. Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR) MJO Working…
A Systematic Relationship between Intraseasonal Variability and Mean State Bias in AGCM Simulations
- Daehyun Kim, A. Sobel, E. Maloney, D. Frierson, I. Kang
- Environmental Science
- 1 November 2011
AbstractSystematic relationships between aspects of intraseasonal variability (ISV) and mean state bias are shown in a number of atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) simulations. When AGCMs…
Advance and prospectus of seasonal prediction: assessment of the APCC/CliPAS 14-model ensemble retrospective seasonal prediction (1980–2004)
- Bin Wang, June‐Yi Lee, T. Yamagata
- Environmental Science
- 1 July 2009
We assessed current status of multi-model ensemble (MME) deterministic and probabilistic seasonal prediction based on 25-year (1980–2004) retrospective forecasts performed by 14 climate model systems…
