Synergistic Effects of PDO and IOD on Water Vapor Transport in the Preflood Season over South China by Junjie Li, Lingli Fan, Guangya Zhang

“…For the frontal precipitation, the positive PDO phase (PDO+) compared with the negative PDO phase (PDO−), there is more water vapor over the West Pacific (WP), the northern South China Sea (SCS), and the Bay of Bengal (BOB). Water vapor for frontal precipitation mainly comes from WP and SCS. …”

The Variability of Summer Atmospheric Water Cycle over the Tibetan Plateau and Its Response to the Indo-Pacific Warm Pool by Deli Meng, Wanjiao Song, Qing Dong, Zi Yin, Wenbo Zhao

“…The central and eastern tropical Pacific, the maritime continent and the western Indian Ocean together constituted the triple Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomaly, which enhanced the convective activity over the IPWP and induced a significant easterly wind anomaly in the middle and lower troposphere, and then generated pronounced easterly WVT anomalies from the tropical Pacific to the maritime continent and the Bay of Bengal. Affected by the air-sea changes in the IPWP, the combined effects of the upstream strengthening and the downstream weakening in the water vapor transport process, directly and indirectly, increased the water vapor transport and budget of TP.…”

Statistical Seasonal Forecasting of Tropical Cyclone Landfall on South China Utilizing Preseason Predictors by Oscar Y. W. Zhang, Kelvin T. F. Chan, Kelvin T. F. Chan, Kelvin T. F. Chan, Lifeng Xu, Zhenzhen Wu

“…The multiple linear regression analysis shows that the April sea level pressure over the tropical central Pacific, the March-April mean sea surface temperature southwest to Australia, the March 850-hPa zonal wind east to Japan, and the April 500-hPa zonal wind over Bay of Bengal are the significant predictors. The model is validated by the leave-one-out cross validation and recent 15-year observations (2006–2020). …”

A Joint Impact on Water Vapor Transport over South China during the Pre-Rainy Season by ENSO and PDO by Guangya Zhang, Junjie Li, Lingli Fan

“…The results show that: (1) For the frontal precipitation, in the Pacific Decadal Oscillation positive phase (PDO+), there is a great positive water vapor difference between ENSO+ (the positive ENSO phase) and ENSO− (the negative ENSO phase) over the tropical Indian Ocean (IO), the Bay of Bengal (BOB), the South China Sea (SCS) and the western Pacific (WP), the distribution of the difference is adjusted for PDO− (the negative PDO phase). …”

Shoreline Change Assessment in the Coastal Region of Bangladesh Delta Using Tasseled Cap Transformation from Satellite Remote Sensing Dataset by Md Shamsuzzoha, Tofael Ahamed

“…Erosion is one of the water hazards to landmass sinking, and accretion relates to land level rises due to sediment load deposition on the Bay of Bengal continental shelf. Therefore, this study aimed to explore shoreline status with change assessment for the three study years 1991, 2006, and 2021 using satellite remote sensing and geographical information system (GIS) approaches. …”

Correlating volcanic emissions from Andaman-Sumatra region to atmospheric pollution in Delhi: A possible scenario by A. Akilan, M. Satyanarayanan, S. Balaji, M.J. Nandan, M. Venkateshwarlu, S. Kumar, Y. Srinivas, H.V.S. Satyanarayana, O.P. Pandey

“…The change in ZTD appears to be caused by the increase in the water vapor in the troposphere, as observed in one of the events (Nilam cyclone) in the Bay-of-Bengal region during October 2016. During this volcanic activity, the temperature and toxic contaminated materials from the volcanic eruptions, increased in the surrounding ocean which apparently killed the whales. …”

Topographical and Thermal Forcing in Favorable Circulation Pattern to Early Spring Precipitation over the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau by Yaoxian Yang, Zeyong Hu, Maoshan Li, Haipeng Yu, Weiqiang Ma, Weiwei Fan

“…Thermal forcing experiments reveals that sensible heating over the southeastern TP not only strengthens the cyclonic circulation, ascending motion and statically unstable over the southeastern TP through thermal adaptation and the Sverdrup balance, but also triggers an anticyclone at upper tropospheric level extending from north of the Bay of Bengal to the eastern TP, which further favors precipitation over the southeastern TP. …”
