  1. <Monsoon System Study Working Group>What progress has been made in the GAME Phase-I and what will be done in the GAME Phase-II?GISP-II meeting, Tokyo, November 6, 2002 By Jun Matsumoto, Univ. Tokyo National Working Group Members： Jun Matsumoto* (Univ. Tokyo), Hiroaki Ueda* (Univ. Tsukuba), Ryuichi Kawamura (Toyama Univ.), Yasumasa Kodama (Hirosaki Univ.), Masato Shinoda (Tokyo Metrop. Univ.), Yukari Takayabu (Univ. Tokyo) International Working Group Member： Johnny C. L. Chan* (Hong Kong City Univ.) * GISP member

  2. What will be done in the GAME Phase-II? • Full utilization of the GAME data-sets (re-analysis, satellite, upper and surface observations) • Cross-cutting large-scale analysis over several intensive observation regions. • Heating processes in the Asian monsoon seasonal transition: Role of land surface through heat and moisture budget analysis Quantitative estimation of Asian monsoon heat sources • Interaction between mid- and low- latitude systems • Relationship between Baiu/monsoon activity and convection over the Tibetan Plateau • Relationship between Typhoon activity and SE Asian monsoon • Quantitative estimation of precipitation system in the monsoon seasonal cycle

  3. Plan for Monsoon System Study in GAME-IIBy Prof. Jun Matsumoto & Prof. Johnny C. L. Chan, GISP-II: Nov. 7, 2002 • Main target: Pre-monsoon and monsoon onset processes • How: Organize national (Japanese) workshop in February, 2003 • Organize international workshop (In early November, 2003) with GISP meeting and GAME-T2 Workshop in Thailand co-organized with SCSMEX Project Office • Include satellite and re-analysis related studies • Organize regional studies/collaborations with Indochina countries • Write a review paper on pre-monsoon and monsoon onset processes

  4. Activity of GAME-II Monsoon System Study in 2003 By Prof. Jun Matsumoto GISP-II: Nov. 10, 2003 • Organize national (Japanese) workshop: February 5-6 (21 oral presentations) • Make presentation in the “CEOP/GEWEX Workshop on the role of the Himalayas and the Tibetan Platesu within the Asian monsoon”: April 7-8, Milan, Italy • Organize special session on “Understanding of onset mechanizm of tropical Asian monsoon” in the spring meeting of the Meteorological Society of Japan: May 24 (5 oral presentations) • Organize international workshop (November 11) after the GISP meeting in conjunction with GAME-T2 Symposium in Thailand co-organized with SCSMEX Project Office (17 oral & 15 posters)

  5. Summary of GAME-II National Monsoon System Workshop at Kyoto February 5-6, 2003 Main topic: Monsoon onset Findings: • Monsoon onset is a transition from dry (shallow) monsoon to wet (deep) monsoon. • Heating over the surrounding ocean in the pre-monsoon period is important for both Australian and Indian monsoon onset. • Process of onset over Indochina and India may be different. Questions: • What triggers the sudden onset? • What is the role of the Tibetan Plateau? • Is the inversion layer over Indochina contribute for the onset? • What is the main factor causing difference of the monsoon onset in each continent? • Is there any the relationship with the surrounding dry region? Key words for future study: • Land-sea distribution, Role of vegetation, Moist process

  6. (1/5) Heat and moisture balance around the Tibetan Plateau using GAME-Reanalysisη-coordinate（σ-p hybrid coordinate）data(H. Ueda, H. Kamahori, N. Yamazaki, 2003, Journal of Climate, 16, 2309-2324) ●Method

  9. A mechanism of the onset of the Australian summer monsoon Kawamura et al. (2002; JGR) ●Importance of air-sea feedback processes ●Dry intrusion into the layer at ~700 hPa level ●Inhibition of convection due to subsidence (Kawamura et al., 2002; JGR)
