Global and Planetary Change, 78(3-4), 83-91.https://repoemc.ukm.my/handle/123456789/1351The southern extent of the South China Sea (SCS) is an important natural resource epicenter for Malaysia which experiences climate extremes. This paper documents the variability of extremes in the equatorial SCS through selected ground-based observations of precipitation in Malaysia and ship-based observations of wind data in the Maritime Continent region, to elucidate the interrelationship between precipitation variability over Malaysia and wind variability over the ocean.enSouth China SeaRainfallClimate extremesMadden Julian OscillationReal-time multivariateJournal
