Effects of El-Niño, Indian Ocean dipole, and Madden-Julian oscillation on surface air temperature and rainfall anomalies over Southeast Asia in 2015. (2018)
Journal Article
ISLAM, M.A., CHAN, A., ASHFOLD, M.J., OOI, C.G. and AZARI, M. 2018. Effects of El-Niño, Indian Ocean dipole, and Madden-Julian oscillation on surface air temperature and rainfall anomalies over Southeast Asia in 2015. Atmosphere [online], 9(9), article 352. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/atmos9090352

The Maritime Continent (MC) is positioned between the Asian and Australian summer monsoons zone. The complex topography and shallow seas around it are major challenges for the climate researchers to model and understand it. It is also the centre of t...
