    Mechanisms effecting the state, evolution and transition of the planetary scale monsoon (1977)
    Springer
    Pure and applied geophysics 115 (1977), S. 1463-1491 
    Details
    ISSN: 1420-9136
    Keywords: Monsoon evolution ; monsoon structure

    Topics: Geosciences , Physics
    Notes: Summary An attempt is made to identify the basic structure of the planetary scale monsoon and to define and describe the various mechanisms effecting or producing that structure and its variation on a variety of time scales. Both observational and theoretical descriptions are used to define the monsoon system or to point towards problems that require clarification. The basic mean summer and winter monsoon regimes are described and a discussion presented on their degree of dependence on the distributions of orography, the form and distribution of land and ocean and the state of the interactive oceans adjacent to the major land masses. It is suggested that orography plays a critical role in determining the state of the mean summer and winter circulations behaving principally as an elevated heat source in summer and a mechanical perturber of the mean flow in winter. The spatial variation of sea-surface temperature and the distribution of land are shown to be theprimum mobile of the mean seasonal monsoon. Various modes and time scales of the variable monsoon are defined. It is shown that the principal time scale variation or phasing of theinterseasonal transition is determined by the different response times of the oceans and land areas to variable solar heating. The reaction of the ocean is a strong function of latitude because of its ability to be heated by solar radiation and mixed mechanically by the atmosphere. The return heating distribution imposed on the atmosphere by the ocean strongly effects the circulation. The inclusion of a hydrology cycle adds a further time scale to the monsoon system allowing much more rapid variations to be superimposed on the modulations caused by radiative and sensible heating effects. The inclusion of clouds introduces a furtherintra-seasonal time-scale into the monsoon circulation causing ‘break-like’ variations of the precipitation pattern and circulation fields during the late summer. Finally, a brief discussion is given on the various forms of interhemispheric interaction. It is suggested that contrary to earlier theoretical speculation, the equatorial latitudes may be considerably more ‘porous’ to mid-latitude disturbances than hitherto anticipated.

    Notes: [Auszug] Climate variability in the Indian Ocean region seems to be, in some aspects, independent of forcing by external phenomena such as the El Niño/Southern Oscillation. But the extent to which, and how, internal coupled ocean–atmosphere dynamics determine the state of the Indian Ocean ...

    Notes: [Auszug] To obtain a Eulerian data set, thfc Lagrangian data required transformation. As no general analytical transformation exists2, the Eulerian information was obtained by computing daily averages of all the measured Lagrangian quantities in each area of 10 latitude by 20 longitude. The resulting ...

    The carbon dioxide/climate controversy: Some personal comments on two recent publications (1984)
    Springer
    Climatic change 6 (1984), S. 377-390 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-1480
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Geosciences , Physics
    Notes: Abstract The pervasive opinion on the relationship between the state of the climate and the increasing concentration of CO2 is that a general global warming will occur with social, economical and environmental corollaries that may be adverse. However, there exist a number of dissenting arguments that call for a much smaller increase in global temperature or even an induced global cooling. Furthermore, the positive biological effects of a greater atmospheric CO2 loading are emphasized. The difference of opinion is highlighted in two recent publications: CO 2, Friend or Foe by Sherwood Idso and Carbon Dioxide: A Second Assessment by the National Academy of Science CO2/Climate Review Committee. Using the two publications as focal points, some personal remarks are made regarding the controversy and the relative merits of the scientific arguments.
