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

Frontiers 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.

Subseasonal prediction of springtime Pacific–North American transport using upper-level wind forecasts [PDF]

Weather and Climate Dynamics, 2021
Forecasts of Pacific jet variability are used to predict stratosphere-to-troposphere transport (STT) and tropical-to-extratropical moisture export (TME) during boreal spring over the Pacific–North American region. A retrospective analysis first documents
