May 21, 2019 · According to India Met Department (IMD), the Arabian Sea arm of south-west monsoon is counting on an itinerant Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) wave for normal monsoon. It is an oceanic-atmospheric phenomenon which affects weather activities across the globe.
Unlike a standing pattern like the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), the Madden–Julian oscillation is a traveling pattern that propagates eastward, at approximately 4 to 8 m/s (14 to 29 km/h; 9 to 18 mph), through the atmosphere above the warm parts of the Indian and Pacific oceans.
Dec 31, 2014 · Here we introduce another important player on the tropical stage: the Madden-Julian Oscillation, or MJO. While the MJO is a lesser-known phenomenon, it can have dramatic impacts in the mid-latitudes.
The Madden-Julian Oscillation is a mode of sub-seasonal atmospheric variability that influences the location and strength of tropical precipitation as in this classic schematic (left) from Rol Madden and Paul Julian.
The Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) has been weak since the start of June. The majority of models indicate the MJO will remain weak for the coming fortnight. At this time of year, the MJO has little impact on Australian rainfall.
Overview. According to the RMM-based MJO index, the MJO was weak since the beginning of June. The 200-hPa velocity potential anomaly field became less coherent the past few weeks although there is a remnant MJO signal crossing the Western Hemisphere.
The Madden-Julian Oscillation is characterised by an eastward spread of large regions of enhanced and suppressed tropical rainfall, mainly observed over the Indian and Pacific Ocean. It was...
Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO), intraseasonal fluctuation of atmospheric pressure over the equatorial Indian and western Pacific oceans, named for American atmospheric scientists Roland Madden and Paul Julian in 1971. This phenomenon comes in the form of alternating cyclonic and anticyclonic.
Jun 30, 2005 · 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 atmospheric ci...
Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO) I. Definition: The MJO is an intraseasonal fluctuation or “wave” occurring in the global tropics. The MJO is responsible for the majority of weather variability in these regions and results in variations in several important
