Moisture Transport and Contribution to the Continental Precipitation

Atmosphere, 2022
Understanding the water cycle change under a warming climate is essential, particularly the ocean to land moisture transport, which affects the precipitation over land areas and influences society and the ecosystem. Using ERA5 data from 1988 to 2020, the

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.

Distinct impacts of two types of El Niño events on northern winter high-latitude temperatures simulated by CMIP6 climate models

Environmental Research Letters, 2023
The interannual variability of the Northern Hemisphere winter climate is strongly linked to the El Niño-southern oscillation (ENSO). While North Pacific and North America often exhibit a robust response to ENSO, so-called the Pacific–North America ...
