Abstract
In terms of the expansion by extended empirical orthogonal function(EEOF) with data of ECMWF/WMO and of outgoing longwave radiation(OLR) furnished by the NOAA polar-orbiting satellite,a study is made of November 1981 to March 1982 low-frequency(30-60 day) summer monsoon activity in the Indonesian-North Australian zone(INAZ) together with its relation to atmospheric circulations in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Results show that at 850 hPa the southward blowing low-frequency NE(SW) wind from the eastern Asian coast changes, after crossing the euqator, to summer NW(SE) monsoon in the INAZ, which, when converging with(diverging from) the western-Australian enforced low-frequency SW(NE) wind, brings about strengthened(weakened) convection in the summer monsoon area and its eastward advance, with corresponding low-frequency variation shown in 850 hPa geopotential height. These outcomes are similar to those from the study of non-filtered actual observations, leading to the conclusion that the component of low-frequency variation illustrates major features characteristic of the variation in the tropical circulation.
