Energetics of monsoon variability over the last 22,000 years

Jalihal, Chetankumar

The interpretation of proxies of paleo monsoons has been based primarily on changes in incident solar radiation. The role of feedbacks has not been examined in depth. In this thesis, we have used a diagnostic model of ...
Investigating controls on intraseasonal convection and the abrupt seasonal transition in the boundary layer during monsoons

Masiwal, Rajat

As solar insolation increases in the northern hemisphere during boreal summer, it is accompanied by an abrupt change in the circulation associated with the monsoons as well as heightened intraseasonal convective activity ...
A Tropical Survey of Mid-Tropospheric Cyclones, their Classification and Genesis over the Arabian Sea

Kushwaha, Pradeep

Middle Tropospheric Cyclones (MTCs) are moist synoptic tropical systems with vorticity maxima in the middle troposphere and weak signature in the lower troposphere. We begin with a tropical survey of MTCs; in South Asia, ...
