RISEastern Intensification of Ocean Spin-Down: Application to El Niño
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The El Niño studies carried out by Bjerknes indicate that the anomalous warming of the eastern boundary tropical ocean in 1939 and 1958 extended 1000 km into the interior ocean, corresponding with a diversion of the Humboldt ...
Effect of Preconditioning on the Extreme Climate Events in the Tropical Indian Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Sea surface temperature observations in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean (EEIO) during the period 1950?2003 indicate that Indian Ocean dipole/zonal mode (IODZM) events are strong in two decades, namely, the 1960s and ...
Origins of Coupled Model Biases in the Arabian Sea Climatological State
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study investigates biases of the climatological mean state of the northern Arabian Sea (NAS) in 31 coupled ocean?atmosphere models. The focus is to understand the cause of the large biases in the depth of the ...
Impact of Indian Ocean Sea Surface Temperature on Developing El Niño
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Prior to the 1976?77 climate shift (1950?76), sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the tropical Indian Ocean consisted of a basinwide warming during boreal fall of the developing phase of most El Niños, whereas after ...
