Abstract
The years 2014 and 2015 turned out to be quite catastrophic for the Asia-Pacific region which took a major toll on the socioeconomic stature of all the entities of the region. The agricultural sector which is one of the most contributing factors to the economy of the region has been highly sensitive to the global climatic changes. Hence this endeavor shall greatly help in an efficient prediction of monsoon cycles, thus enabling the hapless farmers to be better informed and avoid major losses of any kind. The paper focuses on the climatology of air temperature and MSLP with the variation pattern in precipitation over the Asia-Pacific region. The NCEP-NCAR reanalysis data is used for air temperature and MSLP along with high-resolution precipitation dataset for Asia-Pacific monsoon region obtained from GPCP. The temperature datasets are analyzed up to the level 500 hPa. Monte Carlo method of correlation and Bootstrapping method of confidence interval are used to analyze the relation of GPCP with MSLP and temperature at all defined levels. So, in this paper authors attempt to assess the nature and relationship of temperature and MSLP to precipitation over the Asia-Pacific region with the recent 10-year changes which are quantified in detail.
Highlights
It is well thought out that the Asia-Pacific region is the home to approximately 60% of the world’s population with diverse culture, economy, and ecology
The variability which is associated with the El Nino events contributes to cyclic droughts and extreme sea levels in the southwest pacific
A different key description specified by Wang et al [2] over the Asia-Pacific region is the characterization of the Asian monsoon by the low-level southerlies over Asia and the North Western Pacific
Summary
It is well thought out that the Asia-Pacific region is the home to approximately 60% of the world’s population with diverse culture, economy, and ecology This is the region of developing nations where the rapid growth in economies has increased the human prosperity but has exposed the flora and fauna to major exacerbation from our ecosystem. With the help of ERA-40 data and numerical simulations, Zhao et al [4] examined the teleconnection over the extra tropical Asian-Pacific region and its relationship with the Asian monsoon rainfall and the climatological characteristics of tropical cyclones over the western North Pacific They analyzed the impacts of the Tibetan Plateau heating and Pacific sea surface temperature on the teleconnection
