Published in 2019 at "International Journal of Climatology"

DOI: 10.1002/joc.5987

Abstract: Convectively coupled equatorial waves and intra‐seasonal oscillations are known to modulate rainfall over the Tropics significantly. The effect of these oscillations on the frequency distribution of extreme precipitation events (defined based on percentile threshold) over… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society"

DOI: 10.1002/qj.4905

Abstract: The Borneo vortex (BV) is a synoptic‐scale vorticity feature found in the South China Sea near Borneo during extended Boreal winter, which can bring heavy rain to the region. Predicting this rainfall is difficult. Therefore,… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Geophysical Research Letters"

DOI: 10.1029/2023gl103335

Abstract: Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) produce over 50% of tropical precipitation and account for the majority of extreme rainfall and flooding events. MCSs are considered the building blocks of larger‐scale convectively coupled equatorial waves (CCEWs). While… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/science.aaq0469

Abstract: Topological effects may direct ocean and atmospheric waves near the equator Equatorial Kelvin waves occur constantly in Earth's atmosphere and ocean. They constitute an isolated and powerful component of the observed atmospheric wave spectrum (1),… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Journal of Climate"

DOI: 10.1175/jcli-d-24-0042.1

Abstract: Convectively-coupled equatorial waves (CCEWs) with an off-equatorial convective center, such as Equatorial Rossby Waves (ER), Mixed-Rossby Gravity waves (MRG), and Tropical Depression-type Waves (TD), can be potential sources of predictability for sub-seasonal to seasonal prediction… read more here.
