This book is mainly focused on the climate change in Southeast Asia and
its adjacent regions. It summarizes results from recent scientific
research based on observational analysis, data diagnosis, theoretical
analysis, and model simulations. The book covers the following research
areas: (1) characteristics and mechanisms of spring-summer atmospheric
circulation systems, (2) ocean-atmosphere-land interaction and climate
variability, (3) climate effect of the Tibetan Plateau, (4) attribution
of regional climate change and feedback/impact of regional climate on
the global climate, and (5) seasonal-to-subseasonal climate prediction.
It is anticipated that the book provides useful information for
enhancing our understanding of the change in climate over Southeast Asia
and the adjacent regions.
