Abstract: A general digital bandpass filtering procedure is presented whose advantages over other simple filtering methods are 1) versatility in its design, because only a set of three parameters is needed to calculate the filter ...

Abstract: Operational probabilistic (ensemble) forecasts made at ECMWF during the European summer heat wave of 2003 indicate significant skill on medium (3?10 day) and monthly (10?30 day) time scales. A more general ?unified? analysis ...

Abstract: The Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO), a prominent feature of the tropical atmospheric circulation at subseasonal time scales, is known to modulate atmospheric variability in the Euro-Atlantic region. However, current ...

Abstract: The intraseasonal variability (ISV) of the Asian summer monsoon represented in seven coupled general circulation models (CGCMs) as part of the Development of a European Multimodel Ensemble System for Seasonal-to-Interannual ...

Abstract: ommonly used statistical tests of hypothesis, also termed inferential tests, that are available to meteorologists and climatologists all require independent data in the time series to which they are applied. However, most ...

Abstract: easonal-to-decadal predictions are initialized using observations of the present climatic state in full field initialization (FFI). Such model integrations undergo a drift toward the model attractor due to model deficiencies ...

Abstract: AbstractOne of the most robust remote impacts of El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the teleconnection to tropical North Atlantic (TNA) sea surface temperature (SST) in boreal spring. However, important questions still ...

Abstract: limate predictions tailored to the wind energy sector represent an innovation in the use of climate information to better manage the future variability of wind energy resources. Wind energy users have traditionally employed ...

Abstract: The intraseasonal variability (ISV) is an intermittent phenomenon with variable perturbation patterns. To assess the robustness of the simulated ISV in climate models, it is thus interesting to consider the distribution ...
