The Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO) and the Boreal Summer Intraseasonal Oscillation are fundamental climate modes in the tropical atmosphere on the intraseasonal time scales. A recent study developed a linear moisture mode theory for unified treatment of these intraseasonal oscillations under different meridional moisture gradients. Using scaled Hermite polynomials as the basis for the meridional structure, it is shown that the system has infinite number of normal modes under the same parameter values, as n → ∞. The v = 0 and n = 1 analyzed in the previous study are two special cases. These moisture modes are non-orthogonal. The idealized MJO solutions derived using the parameters in the boreal winter conditions bear similar meridional structure for planetary scale waves in the Earth-like atmosphere, unlike the higher order solutions (which are often considered unrealistic) in the classical tropical waves theory. The solutions include both symmetric and anti-symmetric modes. The symmetric modes are analogous to the Kelvin-Rossby wave paradigm of the MJO. The anti-symmetric modes features cross-equatorial flow near the equator and subtropical gyres. Both growth rates and frequencies of the scaled higher order n modes display small increments compared to lower order modes. In the asymptotic limit n → ∞, a growth rate higher than other modes with finite n is achieved.
