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.

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.
