RISInterannual Variations in the Southwest U.S. Monsoon and Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies: A General Circulation Model Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The interannual variability in the southwest U.S. monsoon and its relationship to sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies is investigated via experiments conducted with the University of California, Los Angeles, atmospheric ...
Intraseasonal Variability of the Winter Circulation in the Southern Hemisphere Atmosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The intraseasonal variability of the Southern Hemisphere stratosphere and troposphere is studied using multilevel geopotential height data for nine winters (1979?87). The study uses empirical orthogonal function (EOF) ...
Ensembles of AGCM Two-Tier Predictions and Simulations of the Circulation Anomalies during Winter 1997–98
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impact of sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies on the extratropical circulation during the El Niño winter of 1997?98 is studied through atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) integrations. The model?s midlatitude ...
Climatology and Interannual Variability of Wave, Mean-Flow Interaction in the Southern Hemisphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The climatology and interannual variability of wave?mean flow interaction in the Southern Hemisphere (20?80°S, 0?55 km) is described for the winter months of June?September based on a sample of four years, 1979?82. The ...
Blending Sea Surface Temperatures from Multiple Satellites and In Situ Observations for Coastal Oceans
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-dimensional variational data assimilation (2DVAR) method for blending sea surface temperature (SST) data from multiple observing platforms is presented. This method produces continuous fields and has the capability ...
Simulations of the Atmospheric Response to South Atlantic Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The sensitivity of the atmospheric circulation to sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the tropical and subtropical South Atlantic Ocean is studied by means of simulations with an atmospheric general circulation model ...
Ocean Roles in the TBO Transitions of the Indian–Australian Monsoon System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study uses a series of coupled atmosphere?ocean general circulation model (CGCM) experiments to examine the roles of the Indian and Pacific Oceans in the transition phases of the tropospheric biennial oscillation (TBO) ...
The Effects of the Gulf of California SSTs on Warm-Season Rainfall in the Southwestern United States and Northwestern Mexico: A Regional Model Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impacts of the sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in the northern Gulf of California (GC) on warm-season rainfall in the Arizona?New Mexico (AZNM) and the northwestern Mexico (NWM) regions associated with the North American ...
Empirical Orthogonal Functions and Multiple Flow Regimes in the Southern Hemisphere Winter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We present a new empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis of winter 500 mb geopotential height anomalies in the Southern Hemisphere. An earlier EOF analysis by two of the present authors prefiltered the anomalies to ...
Planetary-Scale Disturbances in the Southern Stratosphere during Early Winter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The early winter (mid-April to mid-July) circulation in the Southern Hemisphere stratosphere is studied. Emphasis is placed on the evolution of strong disturbances with structures dominated by the zonal wavenumber-1 component ...
