We identify a distinct indicator, the Indian Ocean basin-wide (IOBW) index, as representing the regional average of sea surface temperature anomalies in the tropical Indian Ocean. IOBW is closely associated with dengue epidemics for both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. The ability of IOBW ...
Bases on the NCEP / NCAR reanalysis products, HadISST dataset, and data of tropical cyclone (TC) landfalling in the Chinese mainland during 1960-2019, the possible impacts of Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) mode and Indian Ocean basin (IOB) mode on the last-TC
Indian Ocean basin- wide warming/cooling (IOBW)The Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) can affect the El Nio–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) state of the following year, in addition to the well-known preconditioning by equatorial Pacific Warm Water Volume (WWV), as suggested by a study based on ...
This paper examines the relative role of the Indian Ocean basin-wide (IOBW) mode and El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in the atmospheric circulation and rainfall interannual variations over South America (SA) during southern summer of the 1951‒2016 period. The effects of the warm IOBW ...
IOD events are manifested in the out-of-phase interannual fluctuations in the characteristics of the interaction between the ocean and the atmosphere in the western and eastern parts of the equatorial–tropical zone of the Indian Ocean [1]. Another interannual Indian Ocean basin-wide (IOBW) mode...
