AbstractATM-9977864WALISER, DuaneSUNY StonybrookTitle: Water Vapor Variations Associated with the Life Cycle of the MJO: Analysis of NCAR CCM and TOVS PathfinderThe proposed exploratory research will analyze TOVS Pathfinder data to provide an observational description of the water vapor variability associated with the life cycle of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO), the most important mode of tropical intraseasonal variability. This observational description will be compared to those depicted by NCAR CCM2 and CCM3 simulations, that exhibit relatively good and poor MJO simulations, respectively. The work is important because it will advance understanding of the MJO and provide a more robust observational foundation to guide further model development and improvement.

项目名称：与MJO生命周期相关的水汽变化：NCAR CCM和TOVS探路者的分析。拟开展的探索性研究将分析TOVS探路者数据，以提供与MJO生命周期相关的水汽变化的观测描述，MJO是热带季节内变率最重要的模式。这种观测描述将与NCAR CCM2和CCM3模拟所描述的进行比较，后者分别表现出相对较好的和较差的MJO模拟。这项工作很重要，因为它将促进对MJO的理解，并为指导进一步的模型开发和改进提供更可靠的观测基础。
