Since its discovery in the early 1970s, the crucial role of the Madden‐Julian Oscillation
(MJO) in the global hydrological cycle and its tremendous influence on high‐impact climate …

Abstract Studies of the Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) have progressed considerably
during the past decades in observations, numerical modeling, and theoretical …

A linear wave theory for the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO), previously developed by
Sobel and Maloney, is extended upon in this study. In this treatment, column moisture is the …

Aimed at reducing deficiencies in representing the Madden‐Julian oscillation (MJO) in
general circulation models (GCMs), a global model evaluation project on vertical structure …

The Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) is the dominant component of the intraseasonal (30–
90 days) variability in the tropical atmosphere. It consists of large‐scale coupled patterns in …

Beginning from the hypothesis by Bjerknes [1969] that ocean‐atmosphere interaction was
essential to the El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon, the Tropical Ocean …

The dominant thinking about the interaction between large‐scale atmospheric circulations
and moist convection holds that convection acts as a heat source for the large‐scale …

Abstract The Madden‐Julian oscillation (MJO) is a convectively coupled 30–70 day
(intraseasonal) tropical atmospheric mode that drives variations in global weather but which …

Improving the reliability of long-range forecasts of natural disasters, such as severe weather,
droughts and floods, in North America, South America, Africa and the Asian/Australasian …

We present a linear model of intraseasonal oscillations produced by the interaction of an
atmosphere on an equatorial Beta-plane with a fixed ocean. Convection is treated as a …
