(a) Correlation field between IW4 and rainfall anomaly during austral summer. Composite of positive minus negative W4 extreme years in February (b) rainfall (in mm/day), (c) SST(shaded; in °C) and divergent wind at 850 hPa (vector; in m/s), (d) vertically integrated moisture divergence (shaded; in kg/m2/s) and moisture transport (vector; in kg/m/s) for whole atmosphere (i.e. surface to 1 Pa), and (e) vertically integrated specific humidity (in gm/kg) for whole atmosphere (i.e. surface to 1 Pa). Values less than 95% significance level are suppressed.
