The meteorology of monsoons
Monsoon circulations are major features of the tropical atmosphere, which, primarily through the rainfall associated with them, are of profound importance to a large fraction of the world’s population. While there is no universally accepted definition of what constitutes a monsoon, there are some criteria that are widely accepted (see, e.g., the discussions in Ramage (1971), Webster (1987), and...
متن کاملMonsoons and Meltdowns
www.sciencemag.org SCIENCE VOL 326 9 OCTOBER 2009 193 COVER First described by David Hilbert in 1891, the Hilbert curve is a one-dimensional fractal trajectory that densely fills higher-dimensional space without crossing itself. A new method for reconstructing the three-dimensional architecture of the human genome, described on page 289, reveals a polymer analog of Hilbert’s curve at the megaba...
متن کاملIndian monsoons shape dispersal phenology of plants.
The Indian monsoons are a major seasonal climatic event over the Indian subcontinent, heralding the arrival of the wet season. Many features of life, biological and cultural, are intimately synchronized to this seasonality. In this paper, we show that the Indian monsoons might have played an important role in shaping the fruiting time and hence dispersal phenology of plant species in the subcon...
متن کاملDefinition of Architecture
This paper seeks to investigate a new definition for architecture by unifying the three Vitruvian principles of firmitas, utilities, and venustas via a phenomenological approach in the interpretation and analysis of their role in defining architecture. The paper is composed in two main sections. The first section investigates the nature of architecture based on the mentioned principles, where a...
متن کاملObservational Evaluation of a Convective Quasi-Equilibrium View of Monsoons
Idealized dynamical theories that employ a convective quasi-equilibrium (QE) treatment for the diabatic effects of moist convection have been used to explain the location, intensity, and intraseasonal evolution of monsoons. This paper examines whether observations of Earth’s regional monsoons are consistent with the assumption of QE. It is shown here that in local summer climatologies based on ...
