A23F:
The Madden-Julian Oscillation: Observations, Theoretical Understanding, Modeling, and Prediction III Posters
Submit an Abstract to this Session
Session ID#: 31477
Session Description:
The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is widely recognized as one of the major modes of variability of the atmosphere-ocean system that has widespread impacts on global weather extremes and climate. However, our current climate models struggle to accurately simulate and predict the MJO and its remote influences. In this session, we invite presentations that highlight recent progress on a broad range of MJO studies, including but not limited to, 1) observations of the multi-scale structure and critical processes of the MJO; 2) MJO influences on worldwide weather and climate; 3) theoretical understanding of essential MJO dynamics and physics; 4) climate model development efforts towards improved MJO simulations; 5) subseasonal prediction skill and predictability of the MJO and its associated global extreme phenomena; and 6) the upcoming field campaigns aimed at understanding the interactions of MJO with land, ocean and atmospheric processes over the Maritime Continent (e.g. YMC, PISTON etc).
