The Webster and Yang monsoon index (WYI)the zonal wind shear between 850 and 200 hPa was calculated and modied on the basis of NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data. After analyzing the circulation and divergence elds of 150-100 and 200 hPa, however, we found that the 200-hPa level could not re ect the real change of the upper-tropospheric circulation of Asian summer monsoon, especially the characteristics and variation of the tropical easterly jet which is the most important feature of the upper-tropospheric circulation. The zonal wind shear U850-U(150+100) is much larger than U850-U200, and thus it can re ect the strength of monsoon more appropriately. In addition, divergence is the largest at 150 hPa rather than 200 hPa, so 150 hPa in the upper-trop...
