Quasi-Equilibrium and Weak Temperature Gradient Balances in an Equatorial Beta-Plane Model

Fiaz Ahmed et al.

Summary: This study examines the roles of convective quasi-equilibrium (QE) and weak temperature gradient (WTG) balances in the tropical atmosphere using linearized equatorial beta-plane solutions. It is found that wave solutions are characterized by moisture-temperature ratio (q-T ratio) and dominant thermodynamic balances. Different sensitivities of convection to temperature and moisture play crucial roles in precipitation and wave dynamics.

Core Dynamics of the MJO

Ji-Eun Kim et al.

Summary: The study found a solution to the linear equatorial shallow-water equations resembling a harmonic oscillator, showcasing key characteristics of the observed MJO. Unlike existing theories interpreting the MJO as a new mode of variability arising from moisture evolution, this solution emphasizes the core dynamics of the MJO without explicit fluctuations in moisture.

The MJO on the Equatorial Beta Plane: An Eastward-Propagating Rossby Wave Induced by Meridional Moisture Advection

Fiaz Ahmed

Summary: This study examined linearized wave solutions on the equatorial beta plane in the presence of a background meridional moisture gradient, focusing on the eastward-propagating equatorial Rossby wave (ERW) that is unstable at planetary scales. Analysis revealed that the presence of the ERW is influenced by moisture advection, with moistening from low-level easterlies leading to instability. The study also found that the scale selection of the ERW is partly due to convective adjustments over finite time scales and less effective zonal wind-induced moistening at smaller scales.

The Boreal Summer Intraseasonal Oscillation (BSISO): A Review

Kazuyoshi Kikuchi

Summary: The boreal summer intraseasonal oscillation (BSISO) is a significant subseasonal variability in the tropics during boreal summer, exerting a strong effect on tropical weather and climate phenomena. Despite advances in understanding and theory, the ability to simulate BSISO using general circulation models remains unsatisfactory.
