madden-julian oscillation
The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is a large-scale weather pattern that occurs in the tropics, characterized by the eastward movement of clouds, rainfall, and atmospheric circulation over a span of 30 to 60 days. It influences weather patterns globally, impacting the Indian Ocean, Pacific Ocean, and parts of Africa, Asia, and the Americas.
