Buoy and satellite observation of wind induced surface heat exchange in the intraseasonal oscillation over West Pacific and Indian Ocean, 2007:p. 1 (The Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO), or Intraseasonal oscillation (ISO) is the dominant mode of intraseasonal variability in tropical convection and the large-scale circulation)
found: Wikipedia, accessed online Sept. 21, 2007(The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is an equatorial traveling pattern of anomalous rainfall that is planetary in scale. The MJO is characterized by an eastward progression of large regions of both enhanced and suppressed tropical rainfall, observed mainly over the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean. The MJO is also known as the 30-60 day oscillation, 30-60 day wave, or intraseasonal oscillation)
