AMWG Variability Diagnostics for Daily Data
Intraseasonal Variability
Daily 200 hPa velocity potential anomalies computed and then averaged
over 5S-5N, 20-70 day bandpass filter then applied. Hovmöller plots.
Bandpass filter response plot
SILHS_NoZM_cnm_issio7_PO130. Anomalies are relative to the 0000-0010 mean.
Anomalies computed relative to the time period mean.
Madden-Julian Oscillation
Time series of daily 200 hPa zonal wind averaged over 10N-10S.
200 hPa zonal wind bandpass filtered for 20-100 day period.
MJO Index defined as the running variance of the bandpass filtered data.
Histograms
Histograms of daily precipitation rate for the Tropics and NH Extratropics.
EOF analysis
EOF analysis 30S to 30N (lat-lon map, time series)
