This project will study monsoon circulations with a view to the complex interplay between the dynamics of the atmosphere and land/sea boundaries, and the role of monsoon depressions in the overall behavior of monsoon systems. This research will address the structure and dynamics of idealized circulations, using a general circulation model with a full representation of moist processes, but in equilibrium simulations and in idealized situations as far as boundary conditions are concerned. There will be a focus on the existence of thresholds demarcating different types of behavior, the dynamics of cross-equatorial flow driven by remote forcing, and the role of eddies in monsoon circulations. A graduate student will participate in this research.

该项目将研究季风环流，着眼于大气动力学和陆地/海洋边界之间复杂的相互作用，以及季风低压在季风系统总体行为中的作用。这项研究将解决的结构和动力学的理想化环流，使用一个大气环流模式与湿过程的充分代表性，但在平衡模拟和理想化的情况下，就边界条件而言。重点将放在划分不同类型行为的阈值的存在、远程强迫驱动的越赤道气流的动态以及涡旋在季风环流中的作用。一名研究生将参与这项研究。
