Unexpected limitation of tropical cyclone genesis by subsurface tropical central-north Pacific during El Niño [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The vast tropical Pacific is home to the majority of tropical cyclones (TCs) which threaten the rim countries every year. The TC genesis is nourished by warm sea surface temperatures (SSTs). During El Niño, the western Pacific warm pool extends eastward.

What maintains the central North Pacific genetic discontinuity in Pacific herring? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Pacific herring show an abrupt genetic discontinuity in the central North Pacific that represents secondary contact between refuge populations previously isolated during Pleistocene glaciations.

Teleconnections link to summer heat extremes in the south-central U.S.: Insights from CMIP5 and CMIP6 simulations

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes, 2023
This study examines the relationship between teleconnections, which represent quasiperiodic modes of large-scale atmospheric and oceanic variability, and extreme heatwaves in the south-central (SC) U.S.

Seasonal cycles of surface layer salinity in the Pacific Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2010
The seasonal variability of surface layer salinity (SLS) is examined in the Pacific Ocean between 40° S and 60° N using a variety of data sources. Significant seasonal cycles were found in 5 regions: 1) The western North Pacific, 2) The northeastern ...

Diverse Response of Western North Pacific Anticyclone to Fast‐Decay El Niño During Decaying Summer

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Previous studies suggested that fast‐decay El Niño events are more favorable in generating the western North Pacific anticyclone (WNPAC) in the decaying summer. However, we found that this is not the case for all fast‐decay El Niño events.

Response of North Pacific storm tracks to multiscale SST anomalies in a stable state of the Kuroshio extension system during the cold season

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
In the present study, the response of North Pacific storm tracks to spatial multiscale (large-scale and mesoscale) sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) in stable state of Kuroshio Extension (KE-related SSTAs) system are investigated.

Long‐Term Variability in Pliocene North Pacific Ocean Export Production and Its Implications for Ocean Circulation in a Warmer World

open access: yesAGU Advances, 2023
Unlike in the high‐latitude North Atlantic, no deep water is formed in the modern subarctic North Pacific. It has previously been suggested that during climate states different from today, this dichotomy did not endure, and the formation of North Pacific

The Lagged Effect of Anthropogenic Aerosol on East Asian Precipitation during the Summer Monsoon Season

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
The authors investigated the lagged effect of anthropogenic aerosols (AAs) during the premonsoon season (April–May–June) on the East Asian precipitation during the postmonsoon season (July–August) using the aerosol optical depth (AOD) from a satellite ...

A regime shift in North Pacific annual mean sea surface temperature in 2013/14

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
This study revealed a new regime shift in the North Pacific annual mean sea surface temperature (SST) in 2013/14, robust in multiple SST data sets. This regime shift shows a horseshoe pattern with warming SST along the North American western coast and ...

Hydroclimate variations in central and monsoonal Asia over the past 700 years. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Hydroclimate variations since 1300 in central and monsoonal Asia and their interplay on interannual and interdecadal timescales are investigated using the tree-ring based Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) reconstructions.
