RISOn the Atmospheric Responses to Tropical Pacific Heating during the Mature Phase of El Niño
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The atmospheric heating and sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies during the mature phase of El Niño are observed to show both eastern and western Pacific anomaly patterns, with positive anomalies in the equatorial ...
Atmospheric Circulation Cells Associated with the El Niño–Southern Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Atmospheric circulation cells associated with the El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) are described and examined using the NCEP?NCAR reanalysis field and the NCEP sea surface temperature (SST) from January 1950 to December ...
Atlantic Climate Variability and Its Associated Atmospheric Circulation Cells
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Phenomena important for Atlantic climate variability include the Atlantic zonal equatorial mode, the tropical Atlantic meridional gradient mode, and the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). These climate phenomena and their ...
A Unified Oscillator Model for the El Niño–Southern Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The delayed oscillator, the western Pacific oscillator, the recharge?discharge oscillator, and the advective?reflective oscillator have been proposed to interpret the oscillatory nature of the El Niño?Southern Oscillation ...
Large-Scale Anomalous Cyclone in the Western North Pacific

Multidecadal Ocean Temperature and Salinity Variability in the Tropical North Atlantic: Linking with the AMO, AMOC, and Subtropical Cell
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Atlantic multidecadal oscillation (AMO) is characterized by the sea surface warming (cooling) of the entire North Atlantic during its warm (cold) phase. Both observations and most of the phase 5 of the Coupled Model ...
Classifying El Niño Modoki I and II by Different Impacts on Rainfall in Southern China and Typhoon Tracks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ased on their opposite influences on rainfall in southern China during boreal fall, this paper classifies El Niño Modoki into two groups: El Niño Modoki I and II, which show different origins and patterns of SST anomalies. ...
Decadal Variability of the Anticyclone in the Western North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The western North Pacific anomalous anticyclone (WNPAC) significantly affects East Asian climate. Previous studies have elucidated interannual variability of the WNPAC associated with El Niño, but decadal variability of ...
Delayed Advective Oscillation of the Atlantic Thermohaline Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple dynamic model is proposed to illustrate the multidecadal oscillation of the Atlantic Ocean thermohaline circulation. The proposed oscillation relies on alternating actions of positive and negative feedbacks, which ...
Equatorially Trapped Waves of a Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Equatorially trapped waves of a simplified coupled ocean-atmosphere system are described by applying the formalism for conventional equatorially trapped waves with the assumption that the zonal wind stress and sea surface ...
