In this study, the possible linkage between summer monsoon rainfall over India and surface meteorological fields (basic fields
and heat budget components) over monsoon region (30‡E-120‡E, 30‡S30‡N) during the pre-monsoon month of May and summer monsoon
season (June to September) are examined. For this purpose, monthly surface meteorological fields anomaly are analyzed for
42 years (1958-1999) using reanalysis data of NCEP/NCAR (National Center for Environmental Prediction/National Center for
Atmospheric Research). The statistical significance of the anomaly (difference) between the surplus and deficient monsoon
years in the surface meteorological fields are also examined by Student’s t-test at 95% confidence level.
Significant negative anomalies of mean sea level pressure are observed over India, Arabian Sea and Arabian Peninsular in the
pre-monsoon month of May and monsoon season. Significant positive anomalies in the zonal and meridional wind (at 2 m) in the
month of May are observed in the west Arabian Sea off Somali coast and for monsoon season it is in the central Arabian Sea
that extends up to Somalia. Significant positive anomalies of the surface temperature and air temperature (at 2 m) in the
month of May are observed over north India and adjoining Pakistan and Afghanistan region. During monsoon season this region
is replaced by significant negative anomalies. In the month of May, significant positive anomalies of cloud amount are observed
over Somali coast, north Bay of Bengal and adjoining West Bengal and Bangladesh. During monsoon season, cloud amount shows
positive anomalies over NW India and north Arabian Sea.
There is overall reduction in the incoming shortwave radiation flux during surplus monsoon years. A higher magnitude of latent
heat flux is also found in surplus monsoon years for the month of May as well as the monsoon season. The significant positive
anomaly of latent heat flux in May, observed over southwest Arabian Sea, may be considered as an advance indicator of the
possible behavior of the subsequent monsoon season. The distribution of net heat flux is predominantly negative over eastern
Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and Indian Ocean. Anomaly between the two extreme monsoon years in post 1980 (i.e., 1988 and 1987)
shows that shortwave flux, latent heat flux and net heat flux indicate reversal in sign, particularly in south Indian Ocean.
Variations of the heat budget components over four smaller sectors of Indian seas, namely Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and west
Indian Ocean and east Indian Ocean show that a small sector of Arabian Sea is most dominant during May and other sectors showing
reversal in sign of latent heat flux during monsoon season. 相似文献

In this paper, the simultaneous effect of North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and Southern Oscillation (SO) on monsoon rainfall
over different homogeneous regions/subdivisions of India is studied. The simultaneous effect of both NAO and SO on Indian
summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) is more important than their individual impact because both the oscillations exist simultaneously
throughout the year. To represent the simultaneous impact of NAO and SO, an index called effective strength index (ESI) has
been defined on the basis of monthly NAO and SO indices. The variation in the tendency of ESI from January through April has
been analyzed and reveals that when this tendency is decreasing, then the ESI value throughout the monsoon season (June–September)
of the year remains negative andvice versa. This study further suggests that during the negative phase of ESI tendency, almost all subdivisions of India show above-normal
rainfall andvice versa. The correlation analysis indicates that the ESI-tendency is showing an inverse and statistically significant relationship
with rainfall over 14 subdivisions of India. Area wise, about 50% of the total area of India shows statistically significant
association. Moreover, the ESI-tendency shows a significant relationship with rainfall over north west India, west central
India, central north east India, peninsular India and India as a whole. Thus, ESI-tendency can be used as a precursor for
the prediction of Indian summer monsoon rainfall on a smaller spatial scale. 相似文献

Analysis of monthly momentum transport of zonal waves at 850 hPa for the period 1979 to 1993, between ‡S and ‡N for January
to April, using zonal (u) and meridional (v) components of wind taken from the ECMWF reanalysis field, shows a positive correlation (.1% level of significance) between
the Indian summer monsoon rainfall (June through September) and the momentum transport of wave zero TM(0) over latitudinal
belt between 25‡S and 5‡N (LB) during March. Northward (Southward) TM(0) observed in March over LB subsequently leads to a
good (drought) monsoon season over India which is found to be true even when the year is marked with the El-Nino event. Similarly
a strong westerly zone in the Indian Ocean during March, indicates a good monsoon season for the country, even if the year
is marked with El-Nino. The study thus suggests two predictors, TM(0) over LB and the strength of westerly zone in the Indian
Ocean during March. 相似文献

We examine the relationship between three tropical and two subtropical western Indian Ocean coral oxygen isotope time series
to surface air temperatures (SAT) and rainfall over India, tropical East Africa and southeast Africa. We review established
relationships, provide new concepts with regard to distinct rainfall seasons, and mean annual temperatures. Tropical corals
are coherent with SAT over western India and East Africa at interannual and multidecadal periodicities. The subtropical corals
correlate with Southeast African SAT at periodicities of 16–30 years. The relationship between the coral records and land
rainfall is more complex. Running correlations suggest varying strength of interannual teleconnections between the tropical
coral oxygen isotope records and rainfall over equatorial East Africa. The relationship with rainfall over India changed in
the 1970s. The subtropical oxygen isotope records are coherent with South African rainfall at interdecadal periodicities.
Paleoclimatological reconstructions of land rainfall and SAT reveal that the inferred relationships generally hold during
the last 350 years. Thus, the Indian Ocean corals prove invaluable for investigating land–ocean interactions during past centuries.

The seasonal cycle of temperature—salinity variations in the Bab el Mandab region (southern Red Sea) is described using CTD
data collected during four cruises spread over the period May 1995—August 1997. A two layer system exists during early summer,
winter and spring while a three layer system exists during summer. During summer, a large amount of the Gulf of Aden water
intrudes into the Bab el Mandab region; up to the northern limit (14.5‡N). The quantity of Red Sea water that flows into the
Gulf of Aden is maximum during the winter and minimum during the summer 相似文献

Extreme climate and weather events are increasingly being recognized as key aspects of climate change. Pre-monsoon season
(March–May) is the hottest part of the year over almost the entire South Asian region, in which hot weather extremes including
heat waves are recurring natural hazards having serious societal impacts, particularly on human health. In the present paper,
recent trends in extreme temperature events for the pre-monsoon season have been studied using daily data on maximum and minimum
temperatures over a well-distributed network of 121 stations for the period 1970–2005. For this purpose, time series of extreme
temperature events have been constructed for India as a whole and seven homogeneous regions, viz., Western Himalaya (WH),
Northwest (NW), Northeast (NE), North Central (NC), East coast (EC), West coast (WC) and Interior Peninsula (IP). 相似文献

On the impacts of ENSO and Indian Ocean dipole events on sub-regional Indian summer monsoon rainfall 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The relative impacts of the ENSO and Indian Ocean dipole (IOD) events on Indian summer (June–September) monsoon rainfall at
sub-regional scales have been examined in this study. GISST datasets from 1958 to 1998, along with Willmott and Matsuura gridded
rainfall data, all India summer monsoon rainfall data, and homogeneous and sub-regional Indian rainfall datasets were used.
The spatial distribution of partial correlations between the IOD and summer rainfall over India indicates a significant impact
on rainfall along the monsoon trough regions, parts of the southwest coastal regions of India, and also over Pakistan, Afghanistan,
and Iran. ENSO events have a wider impact, although opposite in nature over the monsoon trough region to that of IOD events.
The ENSO (IOD) index is negatively (positively) correlated (significant at the 95% confidence level from a two-tailed Student
t-test) with summer monsoon rainfall over seven (four) of the eight homogeneous rainfall zones of India. During summer, ENSO
events also cause drought over northern Sri Lanka, whereas the IOD events cause surplus rainfall in its south. On monthly
scales, the ENSO and IOD events have significant impacts on many parts of India. In general, the magnitude of ENSO-related
correlations is greater than those related to the IOD. The monthly-stratified IOD variability during each of the months from
July to September has a significant impact on Indian summer monsoon rainfall variability over different parts of India, confirming
that strong IOD events indeed affect the Indian summer monsoon.

The role of low-frequency intraseasonal oscillations in the anomalous Indian summer monsoon rainfall of 2002 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We analyze the dynamical features and responsible factors of the low-frequency intraseasonal time scales which influenced
the nature of onset, intensity and duration of active/break phases and withdrawal of the monsoon during the anomalous Indian
summer monsoon of 2002 — the most severe drought recorded in recent times. During that season, persistent warm sea surface
temperature anomalies over the equatorial Indian Ocean played a significant role in modulating the strength of the monsoon
Hadley circulation. This in turn affected the onset and intense break spells especially the long break during the peak monsoon
month of July. Strong low-frequency intraseasonal modulations with significant impact on the onset and active/break phases
occurred in 2002 which were manifested as a good association between low-frequency intraseasonal oscillations and the onset
and active/break spells. Further, SST anomalies over the equatorial Indo-Pacific region on low-frequency intraseasonal time
scales were found to affect the equatorial eastward and thereby off-equatorial northward propagations of enhanced convection
over the Indian region. These propagations in turn modulated the active/break cycle deciding the consequent severity of the
2002 drought. 相似文献

Between 1941 and 2002 there has been a decreasing trend in the frequency of monsoon disturbances (MDs) during the summer monsoon
season (June–September). This downwards trend is significant at the 99.9% level for the main monsoon phase (July–August) and
the withdrawal phase (September); however, it is not significant during the onset phase (June). The variability in rainfall
over the homogeneous regions of India on the sub-seasonal scale also shows a significant decreasing trend with respect to
the amount of rainfall over Northwest India (NWI) and Central India (CEI) during all three phases of the monsoon. Meteorological
observations reveal that there has been an eastward shift of the rainfall belt with time over the Indian region on the seasonal
scale and that this shift is more prominent during the withdrawal phase. This decreasing trend in MDs together with its restricted
westerly movement seem to be directly related to the decreasing trend in rainfall over CEI during both the main monsoon and
withdrawal phases and over NWI during the withdrawal phase. The low-level circulation anomalies observed during two periods
(period-I: 1951–1976; period-ii: 1977–2002) are in accordance with the changes in rainfall distribution, with comparatively
more (less) rainfall falling over NWI, CEI and Southern Peninsular India (SPI) during period-I (period-ii), and are accompanied
by a stronger (weaker) monsoon circulation embedded with an anomalous cyclonic (anti-cyclonic) circulation over CEI during
the main monsoon and withdrawal phases. During the onset phase, completely opposite circulation anomalies are observed during
both periods, and these are associated with more (less) rainfall over NWI, CEI and SPI during period-ii (period-I). 相似文献

An investigation has been carried out to identify the trends in maximum, minimum and mean temperatures and temperature range over the Indian land mass during the winter (January, and February), pre-monsoon (March–May), southwest monsoon (June–September) and post-monsoon (October–December) seasons by using high resolution daily gridded data set prepared by India Meteorological Department for the period of 1969–2005. It has been observed that the maximum temperatures over the west coast of India show rising trend in winter, southwest monsoon and post-monsoon seasons but the maximum temperatures do not show any significant trend over the other parts of the country. Minimum temperatures show increasing trend over the North Indian states in all seasons and they show an increasing trend over the west coast of India in winter and southwest monsoon seasons. Mean temperature shows an increasing trend over the west coast of India during winter and southwest monsoon seasons. Decreasing trend is observed in the temperature range over North India in all seasons due to increasing trend in minimum temperature. 相似文献

The summer monsoon rainfall over Orissa, a state on the eastern coast of India, is more significantly related than Indian
summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) to the cyclonic disturbances developing over the Bay of Bengal. Orissa experiences floods and
droughts very often due to variation in the characteristics of these disturbances. Hence, an attempt was made to find out
the inter-annual variability in the rainfall over Orissa and the frequencies of different categories of cyclonic disturbances
affecting Orissa during monsoon season (June–September). For this purpose, different statistical characteristics, such as
mean, coefficient of variation, trends and periodicities in the rainfall and the frequencies of different categories of cyclonic
disturbances affecting Orissa, were analysed from 100 years (1901–2000) of data. The basic objective of the study was to find
out the contribution of inter-annual variability in the frequency of cyclonic disturbances to the inter-annual variability
of monsoon rainfall over Orissa.
The relationship between summer monsoon rainfall over Orissa and the frequency of cyclonic disturbances affecting Orissa shows
temporal variation. The correlation between them has significantly decreased since the 1950s. The variation in their relationship
is mainly due to the variation in the frequency of cyclonic disturbances affecting Orissa. The variability of both rainfall
and total cyclonic disturbances has been above normal since the 1960s, leading to more floods and droughts over Orissa during
recent years. The inter-annual variability of seasonal rainfall over Orissa and the frequency of cyclonic disturbances affecting
Orissa during monsoon season show a quasi-biennial oscillation period of 2–2.8 years. There is least impact of El Nino southern
oscillation (ENSO) on inter-annual variability of both the seasonal rainfall over Orissa and the frequencies of monsoon depressions/total
cyclonic disturbances affecting Orissa. 相似文献

The Indian Antarctic station Maitri (geog. 70‡45’S, 11‡45’E, geom. 66‡.03S, 53‡.21E) occupies a sub-auroral location during
magnetically quiet conditions(Σκρ < 10), but attains an auroral position when the auroral oval shifts equatorwards with increasing strength of magnetic disturbance.
At the latter times, triangulation with 3 fluxgate magnetometers located at the vertices of a suitable triangle provides a
means of monitoring mobile auroral ionospheric current systems over Maitri. The spacing between the magnetometers is typically
kept at 75–200 km, keeping in mind the scale-sizes of ∼ 100 km for these mobile current systems. This work reports the results
of two triangulation experiments carried out around Maitri in January 1992 and January 1995, both during Antarctic summer.
The velocities estimated for pulsations of the Pc4 and Pc5 type were about 0.59 km/sec in the direction 102‡.7 east of due
north, in the first case, and about 1–3 km/sec in the second case in the east-west direction.
While several magnetometer arrays exist in the northern auroral regions (e.g., the Alberta array in Canada, the Alaskan array
in the U.S. and the IMS Scandinavian array), there is no report in literature of triangulation through arrays in Antarctica,
except for a one-day study by Neudegget al 1995 for ULF pulsations of the Pc1 and Pc2 type. The velocities obtained for the Pi3 type of irregular pulsations over Antarctica
in the present study tally well with those obtained for northern auroral locations. 相似文献

Impact of sea breeze on wind-seas off Goa, west coast of India 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
After withdrawal of the Indian Summer Monsoon and until onset of the next monsoon, i.e., roughly during November–May, winds
in the coastal regions of India are dominated by sea breeze. It has an impact on the daily cycle of the sea state near the
coast. The impact is quite significant when large scale winds are weak. During one such event, 1–15 April 1997, a Datawell
directional waverider buoy was deployed in 23 m water depth off Goa, west coast of India. Twenty-minute averaged spectra,
collected once every three hours, show that the spectrum of sea-breeze-related ‘wind-seas’ peaked at 0.23 ±0.05 Hz. These
wind-seas were well separated from swells of frequencies less than 0.15 Hz. The TMA spectrum (Bouwset al 1985) matched the observed seas spectra very well when the sea-breeze was active and the fetch corresponding to equilibrium
spectrum was found to be 77±43 km during such occasions. We emphasize on the diurnal cycle of sea-breeze-related sea off the
coast of Goa and write an equation for the energy of the seas as a function of the local wind 相似文献

The Eastern Ghats Belt is a polycyclic granulite terrain along the east coast of India whose western boundary is marked by
a shear zone along which the granulites are thrusted over the cratonic units of the Indian shield, and its northern margin
is marked by the presence of a number of fault-bounded blocks. Recent work has convincingly brought out that there are domains
within the belt having different evolutionary histories. The segment south of the Godavari Rift went through a high grade
thermo-tectonic event at ∼1.6–1.7 Ga. North of the Godavari Rift in a narrow zone along the western boundary the last high-grade
metamorphic event is of late Archaean age. A series of alkaline plutons along the western boundary zone testifies to a rifting
episode at ∼1.3–1.5 Ga. In the major part of the EGB the metamorphism is broadly of Grenvillian age, with two major thermo-tectonic
pulses at ∼1.1–1.2 Ga and ∼0.95–1.0 Ga. But high grade conditions persisted for a long period and younger thermal events of
∼0.65 Ga to ∼0.80 Ga are locally recorded. There are differences in the tectonometamorphic histories of different domains,
but the tectonic significance of these differences remains uncertain. Pan-African (0.50–0.55) thermal overprints are common
and become conspicuous along the western boundary zone. The thrusting of the Eastern Ghats granulites in a hot state over
the cratons to the west is of Pan-African age. In the Rodinia assembly (∼0.9 Ga) the Eastern Ghats and the Rayner-Napier Complexes
of Antarctica were contiguous, but the pre-Rodinia configuration of these terrains remains unclear. At ∼0.8 Ga during the
Rodinia break up Greater India rifted apart from East Antarctica, and only later it docked with Australia-East Antarctica
at 530–550 Ma. The continuation of the East Antarctic Pan-African orogenic belts into the Eastern Ghats is yet to be ascertained. 相似文献

Spectral aerosol optical depth (AOD) measurements, carried out regularly from a network of observatories spread over the Indian mainland and adjoining islands in the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea, are used to examine the spatio-temporal and spectral variations during the period of ICARB (March to May 2006). The AODs and the derived Ångström parameters showed considerable variations across India during the above period. While at the southern peninsular stations the AODs decreased towards May after a peak in April, in the north Indian regions they increased continuously from March to May. The Ångström coefficients suggested enhanced coarse mode loading in the north Indian regions, compared to southern India. Nevertheless, as months progressed from March to May, the dominance of coarse mode aerosols increased in the columnar aerosol size spectrum over the entire Indian mainland, maintaining the regional distinctiveness. Compared to the above, the island stations showed considerably low AODs, so too the northeastern station Dibrugarh, indicating the prevalence of cleaner environment. Long-range transport of aerosols from tshe adjoining regions leads to remarkable changes in the magnitude of the AODs and their wavelength dependencies during March to May. HYSPLIT back-trajectory analysis shows that enhanced long-range transport of aerosols, particularly from the west Asia and northwest coastal India, contributed significantly to the enhancement of AOD and in the flattening of the spectra over entire regions; if it is the peninsular regions and the island Minicoy are more impacted in April, the north Indian regions including the Indo Gangetic Plain get affected the most during May, with the AODs soaring as high as 1.0 at 500 nm. Over the islands, the Ångström exponent (α) remained significantly lower (~1) over the Arabian Sea compared to Bay of Bengal (BoB) (~1.4) as revealed by the data respectively from Minicoy and Port Blair. Occurrences of higher values of α, showing dominance of accumulation mode aerosols, over BoB are associated well with the advection, above the boundary layer, of fine particles from the east Asian region during March and April. The change in the airmass to marine in May results in a rapid decrease in α over the BoB. 相似文献

In this article, the interannual variability of certain dynamic and thermodynamic characteristics of various sectors in the
Asian summer monsoon domain was examined during the onset phase over the south Indian peninsula (Kerala Coast). Daily average
(0000 and 1200 UTC) reanalysis data sets of the National Centre for Environmental Prediction/National Centre for Atmospheric
Research (NCEP/NCAR) for the period 1948–1999 were used. Based on 52 years onset date of the Indian summer monsoon, we categorized
the pre-onset, onset, and post-onset periods (each an average of 5 days) to investigate the interannual variability of significant
budget terms over the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal, and the Indian peninsula. A higher difference was noticed in low-level kinetic
energy (850 hPa) and the vertically integrated generation of kinetic energy over the Arabian Sea from the pre-onset, onset,
and post-onset periods. Also, significant changes were noticed in the net tropospheric moisture and diabatic heating over
the Arabian Sea and Indian peninsula from the pre-onset to the post-onset period. It appears that attaining the magnitude
of 40 m2 s−2 and then a sharp rise in kinetic energy at 850 hPa is an appropriate time to declare the onset of the summer monsoon over
India. In addition to a sufficient level of net tropospheric moisture (40 mm), a minimum strength of low-level flow is needed
to trigger convective activity over the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. An attempt was also made to develop a location-specific
prediction of onset dates of the summer monsoon over India based on energetics and basic meteorological parameters using multivariate
statistical techniques. The regression technique was developed with the data of May and June for 42 years (1948–1989) and
validated with 10 years NCEP reanalysis from 1990 to 1999. It was found that the predicted onset dates from the regression
model are fairly in agreement with the observed onset dates obtained from the Indian Meteorology Department. 相似文献

This study presents a model to forecast the Indian summer monsoon rainfall(ISMR)(June-September)based on monthly and seasonal time scales. The ISMR time series data sets are classified into two parts for modeling purposes, viz.,(1) training data set(1871-1960), and(2) testing data set(1961-2014).Statistical analyzes reflect the dynamic nature of the ISMR, which couldn't be predicted efficiently by statistical and mathematical based models. Therefore, this study suggests the usage of three techniques,viz., fuzzy set, entropy and artificial neural network(ANN). Based on these techniques, a novel ISMR time series forecasting model is designed to deal with the dynamic nature of the ISMR. This model is verified and validated with training and testing data sets. Various statistical analyzes and comparison studies demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model. 相似文献
