Abstract

Recovers and examines atmospheric pressure data recorded at the Madras Observatory, and at other climate stations in India, focusing on their quality and veracity. In general, the Madras monthly mean sea-level pressure (MSLP) record is shown to be robust over time, and thus a useful long-term measure of fluctuations in the El Niño southern oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon across the Indian Ocean basin and of the Indian summer monsoon.
