Monoon & Climate

My specific research interests currently include the theory of global monsoons and tropical convection. Observations and numerical models are used to understand the mechanisms behind various climate phenomena.

Research Highlights
Book on South Asian Summer Monsoon

A new book on the South Asian Summer Monsoon details our current understanding of its theory, variability from synoptic to decadal scales, forecasting aspects, and vision to future research. We hope that this book will be useful to students, researchers, forecasters, and application builders whos work relates to monsoons of the south Asian region. \

ENSO Transition Mode (ETM)

The ENSO transition mode (ETM) is a climate mode of the southern hemisphere Indo-Pacific Ocean domain, especially prominent during boreal spring. The positive phase of this mode is characterized by a zonal dipole of surface pressure over the southern Pacific Ocean with an increase in pressure toward the east. It creates a surface wind pattern that helps increase the eastern equatorial Pacific sea surface temperature (SST0 from boreal winter to summer. In other words, a positive phase of ETM helps develop a positive phase of ENSO (El Nino) or helps weaken a negative phase of ENSO (La Nina). ETM forcing is most effective in modulating such transition at the multidecadal time scales (~50 years). See here for details.\ Reference: Srivastava et al. (2024) .
