  • The MJO Remained Weak During the Past Week As Reflected on the RMM
    The MJO remained weak during the past week as reflected on the RMM-based MJO index, though there are indications that the signal is still present over the eastern Indian Ocean and the far western Maritime Continent in the upper levels. The CPC velocity potential based MJO index depicts a much slower propagation of the upper-level anomaly field, due in part to interference from the La Nina base state and ongoing tropical cyclone activity over the Atlantic. Dynamical model MJO index forecasts are in good agreement supporting renewed eastward propagation of a fairly weak MJO signal over the Maritime Continent during Week1, with possible emergence over the West Pacific by Week-2. Despite this advancing intraseasonal signal, the low frequency suppressed convective signal over the Pacific will likely play the greater role, and there is considerable uncertainty regarding the evolution of the MJO once it reaches the Pacific. Therefore, although dynamical models depict a somewhat quieter period of tropical cyclone activity over the Atlantic basin during Week-2 which would be consistent with MJO activity, there is no clear signal favoring increased shear. There are currently four active tropical cyclones over the Atlantic basin, and one tropical cyclone over the East Pacific. In addition to Hurricane Paulette, which formed last week and brought wind, rain, and surge impacts to Bermuda, Hurricane Sally formed over the eastern Gulf of Mexico and is currently near the northeastern Gulf Coast, and Tropical Storms Teddy and Vicky formed over the main development region (MDR) between the Cape Verde Islands and the Lesser Antilles.

This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

    Section 9 Development of and studies with coupled ocean-atmosphere models Global warming and Mean Indian summer monsoon Sujata K. Mandke*1, A K Sahai1, Mahesh Shinde1 and Susmita Joseph1 1Climate & Global Modeling Division, Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Pune 411 008, India *[email protected] The rising level in concentration of green house gases(GHGs) in the atmosphere have led to enhanced radiative heating of the earth. Global warming is evident from increase in temperature, sea level rise etc(IPCC,1990,IPCC WG1 TAR,2001). The extreme events of climate system such as floods and droughts is projected(IPCC WG1 TAR, 2001). The impact of climate change on monsoon and its variability is a major issue for Indian subcontinent where agriculture and economic growth is strongly linked to behavior of monsoon. Current versions of Atmosphere-Ocean General Circulation Models(AOGCM) provide reliable simulations of the large scale features of the present day climate but there are uncertainties on regional scale. The present study emphasis the possible impact of climate change on the daily mean summer precipitation focusing on Indian region simulated by ten AOGCMs. Daily precipitation simulated by ten AOGCMs that participated in IPCC for fourth assessment report is used in the present study. The model output from variety of experiments carried out by different modeling groups throughout the world is archived by PCMDI and made available on request to international research community on pcmdi.llnl.gov/ipcc/about_ipcc.php website. Two experiments namely 1pctto2x (1% per year CO2 increase to doubling) and 1pctto4x (1% per year CO2 increase to quadrupling) have been used to study the influence of climate change relative to control experiment.

Owners limit these losses by selecting structural improvements or mitigation and wind and flood insurance. Design/Methodology/Approach – We use mitigation costs, hurricane probabilities and insurance premiums to frame rational cost-minimizing choices for the homeowner. Findings - First, even though nationwide hurricane damage costs are large, the cost-minimizing response for an individual property owner may be to buy no mitigation or structural improvements, no flood insurance and minimal wind insurance, as probabilities of strong hurricanes striking particular locations are extremely low. Second, additional insurance is a less costly defense than structural improvement, even under much higher insurance premiums and hurricane strike probabilities. Third, federally subsidized flood insurance may reduce the effectiveness of government programs encouraging structural mitigation. Originality/value – The last few years were underscored by the catastrophic damages of Hurricanes Katrina, Ike and Wilma. Enormous costs suffered by the public and private sectors could have been avoided with greater mitigation by homeowners.
