Structure and Properties of Madden–Julian Oscillations Deduced from DYNAMO Sounding Arrays (2013, background): “Low-level convergence, divergence aloft, and upward vertical motion progressively deepened with time in October, suggesting an evolution from shallow cumulus and congestus to deep convection with this event, as indicated by past studies (Johnson et al. 1999; Kikuchi and Takayabu 2004; Mapes et al. 2”
CORRIGENDUM of the MJO Transition from Shallow to Deep Convection in Cloudsat-Calipso Data and GISS GCM Simulations (2012, background): “Kikuchi and Takayabu (2004) show that strong low-level convergence exists even in the suppressed– developing stage of the MJO, as well as near the MJO peak.”
Fifty Years of Research on the Madden‐Julian Oscillation: Recent Progress, Challenges, and Perspectives (2020, background): “…al., 2011; Kiladis et al., 2005; J. Lin et al., 2004) dominated by shallow cumuli/congestus clouds (Y. H. Chen & Del Genio, 2009; Johnson et al., 1999; Kikuchi & Takayabu, 2004; Powell & Houze, 2013; Tromeur & Rossow, 2010; Xu & Rutledge, 2014), characteristic of free tropospheric moistening that…”
Observed Characteristics of the MJO Relative to Maximum Rainfall (2007, methodology): “The authors hypothesize that the two-tiered signal of q may reflect the position of stable layers [the trade inversion near 850 hPa and the freezing level near 550 hPa (Johnson et al. 1996; Kikuchi and Takayabu 2004)].”
Role of the Boundary Layer Moisture Asymmetry in Causing the Eastward Propagation of the Madden-Julian Oscillation* (2012, background): “The deep convection is then triggered when the midtropospheric moisture reaches its maximum (Kemball-Cook and Weare 2001; Kikuchi and Takayabu 2004; Benedict and Randall 2007).”
Zonal and Vertical Structure of the Madden–Julian Oscillation (2005, background): “…during COARE showed shallow convection developing into midlevel congestus clouds within the leading portion of the MJO, followed by the buildup of deep convection, and finally stratiform precipitation, which lagged by several days (Johnson et al. 1999; Lin et al. 2004; Kikuchi and Takayabu 2004).”
