Interannual Rainfall Extremes over Southwest Western Australia Linked to Indian Ocean Climate Variability

Interannual rainfall extremes over southwest Western Australia (SWWA) are examined using observations, reanalysis data, and a long-term natural integration of the global coupled climate system. The authors reveal a characteristic dipole pattern of Indian Ocean sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies during extreme rainfall years, remarkably consistent between the reanalysis fields and the coupl...

Analyzing Seasonal to Interannual Extreme Weather and Climate Variability with the Extremes Toolkit

Statistical analyses in weather and climate variability studies have often been concerned with averages of a random variable, such as mean precipitation or temperature. However, the extremes of random variables are important to consider, and have become increasingly studied in recent years (e.g., Wettstein and Mearns (2002) (hereafter, WM), Brown and Katz (1995), Zwiers and Kharin (1998), Khari...

Variability of Carbon and Water Fluxes Following Climate Extremes over a Tropical Forest in Southwestern Amazonia

The carbon and water cycles for a southwestern Amazonian forest site were investigated using the longest time series of fluxes of CO2 and water vapor ever reported for this site. The period from 2004 to 2010 included two severe droughts (2005 and 2010) and a flooding year (2009). The effects of such climate extremes were detected in annual sums of fluxes as well as in other components of the ca...

The Influence of Natural Climate Variability on Tropical Cyclones, and Seasonal Forecasts of Tropical Cyclone Activity

In the first part of this chapter, we give a review of the relationship of climate and tropical cyclones on various time scales, from intra-seasonal to decadal. The response of tropical cyclone activity to natural modes of variability, such as El Niño-Southern Oscillation and the Madden Julian Oscillation in various regions of the world are discussed. Genesis location, track types and intensity...
