Contrasting climate oscillations impacts on phytoplankton in the western and eastern tropical Pacific [PDF]

Nature Communications
Climate oscillations like the El Niño-Southern Oscillation and Pacific Decadal Oscillation significantly impact marine ecosystems. Traditionally, warm events are thought to suppress nutrient availability, reduce phytoplankton biomass, and change ...

The Pacific Decadal Oscillation modulated marine heatwaves in the Northeast Pacific during past decades

Communications Earth & Environment, 2023
The Pacific Decadal Oscillation has been suggested to play an important role in driving marine heatwaves in the Northeast Pacific during recent decades.

Decadal oscillation provides skillful multiyear predictions of Antarctic sea ice

Nature Communications, 2023
Over the satellite era, Antarctic sea ice exhibited an overall long-term increasing trend, contrary to the Arctic reduction under global warming. However, the drastic decline of Antarctic sea ice in 2014–2018 raises questions about its interannual and ...

Southern California winter precipitation variability reflected in 100-year ocean salinity record

Communications Earth & Environment, 2023
Rainfall in southern California is highly variable, with some fluctuations explainable by climate patterns. Resulting runoff and heightened streamflow from rain events introduces freshwater plumes into the coastal ocean.

Decadal Modulation of the Relationship Between Tropical Southern Atlantic SST and Subsequent ENSO by Pacific Decadal Oscillation

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
This study identifies the relationship between tropical southern Atlantic (TSA) sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA) and the El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and focuses on how the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) modulates this relationship ...

Decadal Variability of the Extratropical Response to the Madden–Julian Oscillation

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
The Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) is the leading mode of sub‐seasonal variability in the tropical atmosphere and is a source of predictability for extratropical weather through its teleconnections. MJO teleconnection patterns can be modulated by the El

Dynamical Dependencies at Monthly and Interannual Time Scales in the Climate System: Study of the North Pacific and Atlantic Regions

Tellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2022
The directional dependencies of different climate indices are explored using the Liang-Kleeman information flow in order to disentangle the influence of certain regions over the globe on the development of low-frequency variability of others.

Opposite Impacts of Interannual and Decadal Pacific Variability in the Extratropics

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
It is well established that the positive phase of El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) tends to weaken the Northern Hemisphere stratospheric polar vortex (SPV), promoting a negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO).

Why Pacific quasi-decadal oscillation has emerged since the mid-20th century

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
Pacific quasi-decadal oscillation (PQDO) is one component of the multi-time-scale tropical Pacific decadal variability, with a variability center in the equatorial central Pacific (ECP).
