RISSimulated U.S. Drought Response to Interannual and Decadal Pacific SST Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: dealized atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) experiments by the U.S. Climate Variability and Predictability Program (CLIVAR) Drought Working Group were used in order to study the influence of natural modes of sea ...
A Simple Mechanism for ENSO Residuals and Asymmetry
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple mechanism is offered that accounts for a change in the long-term (decadal scale) mean of ocean temperatures as the El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) amplitude changes. It is intended as an illustration of a ...
Decadal Modulation of ENSO in a Hybrid Coupled Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Decadal variations in the amplitude of El Niño and the Southern Oscillation have been the subject of great interest in the literature for the past decade. One theory suggests that ENSO is best described as a stable system ...
Tropical Pacific Forcing of North American Medieval Megadroughts: Testing the Concept with an Atmosphere Model Forced by Coral-Reconstructed SSTs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The possible role that tropical Pacific SSTs played in driving the megadroughts over North America during the medieval period is addressed. Fossil coral records from the Palmyra Atoll are used to derive tropical Pacific ...
Decadal Climate Prediction: An Update from the Trenches
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: r provides an update on research in the relatively new and fast-moving field of decadal climate prediction, and addresses the use of decadal climate predictions not only for potential users of such information but also for ...
