Dynamics of Interannual Variability in Summer Precipitation over East Asia*
The summertime mei-yu–baiu rainband over East Asia displays considerable interannual variability. A singular value decomposition (SVD) analysis for interannual variability reveals that precipitation anomalies over the mei-yu–baiu region are accompanied by in situ anomalies of midtropospheric horizontal temperature advection. Anomalous warm (cool) advection causes increased (decreased) mei-yu–ba...
متن کاملEvolution of precipitation and convective echo top heights observed by TRMM radar over the Indian Ocean during DYNAMO
Radar data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission show the evolution of echo tops of convective elements over the Indian Ocean and Maritime Continent during the Dynamics of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (DYNAMO) field campaign of 2011–2012. Echo top heights exhibited a bimodal distribution wherein cumulonimbi of moderate height constituted a “congestus mode” while vertically extensive cum...
متن کاملDiurnal Cycle of Summer Precipitation over Subtropical East Asia in CAM5
The simulations of summertime diurnal cycle of precipitation and low-level winds by the Community Atmosphere Model, version 5, are evaluated over subtropical East Asia. The evaluation reveals the physical cause of the observed diurnal rainfall variation in East Asia and points to the source of model strengths and weaknesses. Two model versions with horizontal resolutions of 2.88 and 0.58 are us...
متن کاملThe effect of environmental conditions on tropical deep convective systems observed from the TRMM satellite
This study uses measurements of radiation and cloud properties taken between January and August 1998 by three Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) instruments, the Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES) scanner, the TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI), and the Visible and InfraRed Scanner (VIRS), to evaluate the variations of tropical deep convective systems (DCS) with sea surface t...
متن کاملEvaluation of TRMM Summer Precipitation Over Huai-River Basin In China
In this study, the biases and uncertainty of TRMM 3B42 estimates are investigated over the Huai-River Basin during the summer season in 2010. TRMM products of 3B42RT, 3B42V6 and 3B42V7 are cross-compared to Chinese Precipitation Analyses Products (CPAP) as the reference. It is found that the distribution of bias is closely depend on the terrain with the dry bias locates at hills/mountains and w...
