Joint effect of the Indian Ocean Dipole and the Silk Road Pattern on Indian rainfall during summer to autumn transition

Ping Zhang et al.

Summary: Variations in Indian summer rainfall caused by the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) and Silk Road Pattern (SRP) can have significant socioeconomic impacts. This study reveals the joint effects of IOD and SRP on Indian rainfall during the summer to autumn transition, with a positive correlation between these patterns and the second mode of Indian rainfall anomaly. The study emphasizes the need to consider the combined influence of tropical and mid-latitude factors when simulating and predicting Indian rainfall.

Why was the heat wave in the Yangtze River valley abnormally intensified in late summer 2022?

Daquan Zhang et al.

Summary: A record-breaking heat wave hit the Yangtze River valley in the summer of 2022, causing severe social and economic losses. This study investigated the physical mechanisms responsible for the intensification of the heat event in late summer under the background of a La Nina event. The intensification of the heat event was directly related to the strengthening and westward extension of the western North Pacific subtropical high (WNPSH).

The Pakistan Flood of August 2022: Causes and Implications

J. S. Nanditha et al.

Summary: The risk of floods in South Asia has increased due to high vulnerability and exposure. The August 2022 Pakistan flood demonstrates the magnitude and devastation that can occur under a warming climate. The flood was primarily driven by multiday extreme precipitation caused by two atmospheric rivers, resulting in significant human mortality and displacement. This event highlights the need for adaptation and climate mitigation in South Asia.

Extremely hot East Asia and flooding western South Asia in the summer of 2022 tied to reversed flow over Tibetan Plateau

Chao He et al.

Summary: In the summer of 2022, unprecedented heat wave occurred along the Yangtze River Valley in East Asia, while unprecedented flood occurred over western South Asia. Analysis of observational data shows that anomalous zonal flow over the Tibetan Plateau explains a major fraction of these extreme events.

Convection-permitting modeling over the Tibetan Plateau improves the simulation of Meiyu Rainfall during the 2011 Yangtze Plain flood

Yuanyuan Ma et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that convection-permitting modeling (CPM) over the Tibetan Plateau can better reproduce regional climate, leading to improved simulation of typical Meiyu rainfall in the Yangtze Plain. These improvements are mainly attributed to the detailed representation of the complex topography over the Tibetan Plateau.

Yuanyuan Ma et al.

Summary: The record-breaking mei-yu rainfall amount in 2020 around the Yangtze River decreased by approximately 9.2% to 14.1% due to post-1980 regional climate change in Asia.

Observed Linkage between Tibetan Plateau Soil Moisture and South Asian Summer Precipitation and the Possible Mechanism

Waheed Ullah et al.

Summary: Understanding the thermal processes of the Tibetan Plateau is crucial in studying climate change, as it impacts summer precipitation in South Asia. This study found that variations in South Asian precipitation are significantly influenced by Tibetan Plateau soil moisture, with dry soil moisture leading to increased summer precipitation in the region. Through analyzing atmospheric data, it was suggested that soil moisture levels in the Tibetan Plateau can affect the energy balance and precipitation patterns in South Asia.
