Surface heat fluxes and MJO propagation through the Maritime Continent
… propagation of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO). To understand the differing dynamics of MJO events that propagate versus stall over the MC, a new MJO tracking algorithm utilizing 30-96 day filtered NOAA Interpolated OLR anomalies is presented. Using this algorithm, MJO events can be …

Coupled Air-Sea-Land Interactions: Understanding the MJO Eastward Propagation and Maritime Continent Barrier Effect
The Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) is the leading mode of tropical intraseasonal variability affecting the global weather and climate. The MJO is characterized by large-scale organized convection and its associated circulation that develops over the tropical Indian Ocean (IO) and propagates into …

Role of multiscale atmospheric conditions in the evolution of convective organization during MJO-1 of DYNAMO/CINDY/AMIE
… central Indian Ocean Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) event observed by the DYNAMO/CINDY/AMIE field campaigns in October 2011. Shifts in reflectivity and dual-polarization characteristics of four precipitation types over two time periods, at the beginning and end of the MJO passage over the radar, …

The Madden-Julian Oscillation and the diurnal cycle over the Maritime Continent: scale interactions and modelling
… region of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO), which provides the greatest variability on intra-seasonal time scales: large-scale (�107 km2) active and suppressed convective envelopes propagate slowly (�5 m s-1) eastwards between the Indian and Pacific Oceans. High-resolution satellite …

Tribological performance of jatropha oil-based nanofluids for orthogonal cutting process
… formulations from modified jatropha oil (MJO) as the MWF. The MJOs were formulated from jatropha methyl ester with addition of trimethylolpropane (JME: TMP) at molar ratio 3.5:1 through transesterification process. Subsequently, the MJOs were mixed with hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), …

The Study of the Indian Ocean Response to Climatic Events Using Satellite Observations and Model Simulations
… (ENSO), and the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO). Simple Ocean Data Assimilation (SODA) reanalysis of Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) from 1871-2008 is used to study the salinity variations during numerous phases of IOD events. The dynamics associated with each phase are responsible for producing …

Comparison of cloud systems simulated with two-dimensional and three-dimensional cloud resolving models
… simulations of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) during the first month of the Dynamics of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (DYNAMO) field campaign (October 2011) to study the effects of dimensionality to increase understanding of convective cloud processes and the processes behind the MJO. The …

The Effect of Orbital Forcing on the MJO’s Amplitude and Phase Speed
The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) has a pronounced seasonal cycle, drifting from the Southern Hemisphere in boreal winter to the Northern Hemisphere in boreal summer, with a maximum intensity during boreal winter in the Southern Hemisphere. The reason for this maximum intensity during boreal …

The Madden-Julian Oscillation and Convective Aggregation
The Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) is a region of enhanced precipitation which forms every 30-60 days over the Indian Ocean and slowly propagates to the east over the Pacific. Despite being the dominant mode of intraseasonal variability in the tropical troposphere, most numerical models struggle …

Study on the application of ionic liquids in bio-based lubricant for a sustainable machining process
… Jatropha-based trimethylolpropane ester (MJO) was refined by mixing it with ionic liquids (ILs) additives. Two biocompatible and oil-miscible ILs; [P6,6,6,14][(iC8)2PO2] (PIL) and [N1,8,8,8][NTf2] (AIL) were mixed in the MJO at 1, 5, and 10 % weight concentrations. The newly refined …

Intra-seasonal oscillations of convection over southern Africa
… day oscillation or Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO) and a shorter 20-30 day ISO are identified. The interaction between the Rossby waves of the mid-latitudes and the MJO of tropics appears to be the main cause of the 20-30 day ISO operating over southern Africa. Hovmoller analysis at 10° S and …

The Madden-Julian oscillation and nonlinear moisture modes
The Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO), the dominant tropical intraseasonal variability with widespread meteorological impacts, continues to puzzle the climate research community on both theoretical and modeling fronts. Motivated by a recent interest in the role of humidity in tropical dynamics, this …

Long-range statistical forecasting of Korean summer precipitation
… We found that the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO), when conditioned with our seasonal index, showed skill in forecasting with lead times out to 20 days. Last, we found that tropical cyclone activity in Korea is impacted by ENSO on the interannual scale, and MJO on the intraseasonal scale.
