Contrasting changes in precipitation events during active and break spells of Indian summer monsoon in recent decades

Amita Kumari et al.

Summary: The Indian summer monsoon and its variations have a significant impact on the lives of people in the Indian subcontinent. This study examined changes in precipitation events during the active and break spells of the monsoon in the core monsoon zone from 1980 to 2019. It found that both the number and duration of active spells have increased in recent decades compared to the reference period, while break spells have also increased, albeit to a lesser extent. The study also highlights the important contributions of convective precipitation and reduced wind shear over the Bay of Bengal to enhanced precipitation during break spells.

The intraseasonal fluctuation of Indian summer monsoon rainfall and its relation with monsoon intraseasonal oscillation (MISO) and Madden Julian oscillation (MJO)

Avijit Dey et al.

Summary: The intraseasonal fluctuations of Indian summer monsoon rainfall are mainly controlled by MISO and MJO. Active spells predominantly occur during MISO phases 2-5, while break spells mainly occur during MISO phases 6-8, with a more prominent association than with MJO phases.

C-band polarimetric Doppler Weather Radar observations during an extreme precipitation event and associated dynamics over Peninsular India

Kandula Subrahmanyam et al.

Summary: This study investigates the structure, dynamics, and potential triggers of the extreme precipitation event in Kerala, India in August 2018 using C-band polarimetric Doppler Weather Radar (DWR) observations. The study highlights the importance of using DWR observations to understand extreme weather events in India.

The rise of Indian summer monsoon precipitation extremes and its correlation with long-term changes of climate and anthropogenic factors

Renaud Falga et al.

Summary: This study analyzes the trends of extreme precipitation events during the Indian summer monsoon and identifies important climatological parameters associated with these trends. The study finds that man-made factors such as land-use and urbanization play a crucial role in the long-term trends of extreme precipitation events. Additionally, thermodynamical and circulation parameters are key predicting factors for the frequency of precipitation extremes in certain regions.

Global warming at near-constant tropospheric relative humidity is supported by observations

Herve Douville et al.

Summary: This study uses various data sources to constrain the changes in global mean total precipitable water and finds that most global climate models exaggerate the predicted increase in atmospheric humidity. The study also finds that global warming will lead to a substantial intensification of the global water cycle.

Intra-seasonal contrasting trends in clouds due to warming induced circulation changes

S. S. Prijith et al.

Summary: Quantification of long term changes in cloud distribution and properties is critical for the proper assessment of future climate. Contrasting trends in cloud properties and cloud radiative effects in the Northwest Indian Ocean during the south Asian summer monsoon are found to be influenced by changes in upper tropospheric winds and atmospheric circulation patterns.
