Western Pacific oceanic heat content: a better predictor of La Niña than of El Niño [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The western equatorial Pacific oceanic heat content (Warm Water Volume in the west or WWVW) is the best El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) predictorbeyond1‐year lead.

El Nino-southern Oscillation and Lathyrism Epidemics

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2015
Epidemics of lathyrism, a neurological syndrome of spastic paraparesis, have occurredduring severe droughts in Europe, Asia, and Africa for millenia. Causation is linked toexposure to β-N-oxalyl-L-α,β-diaminopropionic acid (β-L-ODAP), a neurotoxin in ...

The Asymmetric Predictive Power of Indian Ocean Dipole for Subsequent Year's ENSO: Role of Atlantic Ocean as an Intermediary

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
We examined the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD)'s predictive ability for El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Our findings indicate that positive IODs have a stronger impact on the subsequent year's ENSO compared to negative IODs. To explain this asymmetry, we

Modes of ocean variability in the tropical Pacific as derived from Geosat altimetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Satellite-derived (Geosat altimetry) sea surface height anomalies for the period November 1986 to September 1989 were investigated in order to extract the dominant modes of climate variability in the tropical Pacific.

El Niño–Southern Oscillation strengthened by North Atlantic Iceberg discharge during Heinrich stadial 1

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The last deglaciation provides an opportunity to assess the response of El Niño–Southern Oscillation to rapid warming and disruptions of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, both projected in the near future.

Increase in the Intensity of Air–Sea Coupling in the Key ENSO Region during 1955–2020

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
The El Niño and Southern Oscillation (ENSO), a phenomenon of air–sea coupling in the tropical Pacific, has strong response to global climate change. In this study, the primary region where ENSO occurred during the period 1955–2020 was selected as the key

South Pacific ocean–atmosphere coupling sustains El Niño-Southern Oscillation’s remote influence on Antarctic

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
El Niño-Southern Oscillation events are major climate anomalies originating in the tropical Pacific. While known to affect remote regions during their active phases (December, January, February), this study shows their influence on Antarctic sea ice can ...

Pacific island regional preparedness for El Niño [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle is often blamed for disasters in Pacific island communities. From a disaster risk reduction (DRR) perspective, the challenges with the El Niño part of the ENSO cycle, in particular, are more related to ...

On the Interpretation of Climate Change in the Tropical Pacific [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Analysis of sea surface temperature (SST) observations of the last 150 years reveals strong changes in the tropical Pacific climate system during the most recent decades.
