Popis: In this study, meridional migration characteristic of diurnal heavy rainfall (DHR) over Java and surrounding waters and its relation to Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO) during extreme events was investigated. The rainfall data was the Climate Prediction Centre Morphing (CMORPH) V1.0 in the December-January-February (DJF) wet season of the 1998-2019 period. The thresholds of extreme events were based on the 95% percentile of daily rainfall area average of mountainous area (MA), northern plain area (NPA), northern waters (NW), southern plain area (SPA), and southern waters (SW) that were based on Global Land One-kilometer Base Elevation (GLOBE) Digital Elevation Model. We analyzed meridional migration of DHR through composite and the Hovmoller diagram. To get the MJO signal, we used the Wheeler-Kiladis wavenumber-frequency domain to filter outgoing longwave radiation (OLR). The results showed that DHR was stationary over the mountains, migrated to the Java Sea (The Indian Ocean), and was stationary over the Java Sea (Indian Ocean) in conjuction with migration from Java to the waters when extreme events occur over MA, NPA (SPA), and NW (SW), respectively. Based on a comparison of MJO-OLR during extreme events period of MA, NPA, SPA, NW, and SW, it seems that MJO had a stronger impact on the DHR of NW and SW than the others, but it must be examined based on significant test in the further study.
