The increasing severity of droughts/floods and worsening air quality from increasing
aerosols in Asia monsoon regions are the two gravest threats facing over 60% of the world …

This study presents reviews of recent research on the structure and the multiscale variability
in the East Asian monsoon. The boreal summer and winter seasons in the East Asian …

By analyzing observation-based high-resolution surface air temperature (SAT) data over the
Asian monsoon region (here called “monsoon Asia”) for 1981–2007, the modulation by …

Abstract The western North Pacific subtropical high (WNPSH) in boreal summer shows a
remarkable enhancement after the early 1980s. Whereas the sea surface temperature (SST) …

The extratropical teleconnections associated with Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) are
shown to have an action center in the North Pacific where the pressure anomalies have …

Weather and climate extremes exert devastating influence on human society and ecosystem
around the world. Recent observations show increase in frequency and intensity of climate …

Abstract The East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) and its variability involve circulation
systems in both the tropics and midlatitudes as well as in both the lower and upper …

The relationship between the South Asia monsoon (SAM) and the East Asia monsoon (EAM)
possibly modulated by both external forcings and internal dynamics has been a long …

Boreal summer intraseasonal oscillation (BSISO) is one of the dominant modes of
intraseasonal variability of the tropical climate system, which has fundamental impacts on …

Extratropical and tropical influences on Tibetan Plateau severe and extreme dry and wet
