Abstract
A deeper understanding of the intricate relationship be- tween the two components of the Asian Summer Monsoon (ASM) – the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) and the East Asian Summer Monsoon (EASM) – is crucial to improve the subseasonal forecasting of extreme precipitation events. Using an innovative complex network-based approach, we identify two dominant synchronization pathways between ISM and EASM – a southern mode between the Arabian Sea and south-eastern China occurring in June, and a north- ern mode between the core ISM zone and northern China which peaks in July – and their associated large-scale at- mospheric circulation patterns. Furthermore, we discover that certain phases of the Madden-Julian oscillation and the lower frequency mode of the boreal summer intrasea- sonal oscillation (BSISO) seem to favour the overall synchro- nization of extreme rainfall events between ISM and EASM while the higher frequency mode of the BSISO is likely to support the shifting between the modes of ISM-EASM con- nection.
