Hi everyone,

A reminder that the next ATOC Colloquium will be held in a hybrid
format on *Friday,
September 29 from 11a–12p MT over Zoom and in SEEC S228. *This week's
colloquium will feature a seminar from *Dr. Pragallva Barpanda (Univ. of
Bergen)* entitled, *"The role of subtropical Rossby waves in amplifying the
divergent circulation of the Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO)*". The zoom
login information and an abstract for the colloquium are provided below.
Please join us for conversation beginning at 10:45am MT, and stay
afterwards for a lunch catered by Illegal Pete's.
We look forward to seeing you on Friday!

*The role of subtropical Rossby waves in amplifying the divergent
circulation of the Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO) *
Pragallva Barpanda (Univ. of Bergen)

The composite structure of the MJO has long been known to feature
pronounced Rossby gyres in the subtropical upper troposphere. However, it
is not known whether these subtropical gyre circulations have any
subsequent effects on the MJO convective outflow. In my talk, I will
disentangle the feedback mechanism from subtropics-to-tropics using
idealized model experiments. In particular, I use a nonlinear spherical
shallow water model with different imposed background jet profiles and an
assumed MJO-like thermal heat source. Results show that a stronger
subtropical jet leads to a stronger Kelvin-mode response in the tropics,
together with stronger divergent anomalies in the vicinity of the forcing.
To understand this behavior, additional calculations are performed in which
a localized vorticity forcing is imposed in the extratropics, without any
thermal forcing in the tropics. The response is once again seen to include
pronounced equatorial Kelvin-mode response, provided the jet is of
sufficient amplitude. A detailed analysis of the vorticity budget reveals
that the zonal-mean zonal wind shear plays a key role in amplifying the
Kelvin-mode divergent winds near the equator. These results help to explain
why the MJO tends to be strongest during boreal winter when the
Indo-Pacific jet is typically at its strongest.
