Synopsis

South Asian Summer Monsoon: Processes, Prediction, and Societal Impacts provides a stronger understanding of the monsoon environment and new information on the structure and dynamics of monsoon weather systems, onset and withdrawal processes, South Asian monsoon variability at all time scales, from Diurnal to multi-decadal, and human influence on the changing monsoon climate. Readers will also find updates on the present status and capability of short-to-medium range, extended-range, and seasonal monsoon prediction methods. Finally, the book's authors discuss the role of monsoon forecasts for sectoral applications in agriculture, water resources, drought and flood management, disaster management, public health, and energy.

À propos des auteurs

Madhavan Rajeevan is presently working as a Distinguished Scientist at the Ministry of Earth Sciences. He did his MSc in Physics from Madurai Kamaraj University and PhD in Physics from the University of Pune. He recently superannuated as Secretary to Government of India, Ministry of Earth Sciences, after serving 38 years in various institutions with operational and research experience in weather and climate services. He made significant research contributions on Indian Monsoon variability, Seasonal Prediction, Extreme weather events and convective weather systems. He has published more than 150 research papers with more than 13000 citations. Rajeevan is a Fellow of all three Science Academies of India, an academician of the International Academy of Astronautics, and a member in the Research Board of the World Meteorological Organization. He has edited two books published by Springer on Climate Change and Societal Benefits of Earth Sciences.

Dr. Mukhopadhyay did his PhD in Physics from Savitribai Phule Pune University in the year 2005 and has been working in the field of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) since last twenty-eight years. He has particularly worked in developing high resolution numerical model and improved cumulus and cloud parameterization. He developed for the first time the superparameterized climate forecast model for improved Indian summer monsoon simulation. He has led the program to develop the highest resolution (12km) global ensemble prediction system for short to medium range weather forecast over India. He has published 81 peer reviewed papers in journals and edited one book published by Springer and published six chapters in edited books. He has guided 7 students for PhD and currently guiding 5 students for PhD. He has guided 14 students for the master's thesis.

Arindam Chakraborty is a Professor at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, India. He received his Master's in Physics and Master of Engineering in Atmospheric Sciences before obtaining a PhD in Atmospheric Sciences in 2005. Later, he worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Florida State University for more than four years. He has worked collaboratively with several international and national institutes, including the NCAR in Boulder, Imperial College in London, IITM in Pune. He served as Associated Editor for the Journal of Earth System Sciences and Review Editor for the Frontiers in Climate. His research interests include tropical climate variability, especially the Indian summer monsoon. He has authored about seventy peer-reviewed publications covering various aspects of monsoons. His work on the theoretical aspects of the monsoon, its delayed global teleconnection, the spatial scale of the short-lived extreme precipitation events, and land-atmosphere interaction are notable, among others.
