Resonantly Forced Baroclinic Waves in the Oceans: Subharmonic Modes [PDF]
The study of resonantly forced baroclinic waves in the tropical oceans at mid-latitudes is of paramount importance to advancing our knowledge in fields that investigate the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), the decadal climate variability,

The Anticipation of the ENSO: What Resonantly Forced Baroclinic Waves Can Teach Us (Part II) [PDF]
The purpose of the paper is to take advantage of recent work on the study of resonantly forced baroclinic waves in the tropical Pacific to significantly reduce systematic and random forecasting errors resulting from the current statistical models ...

Modulated Response of Subtropical Gyres: Positive Feedback Loop, Subharmonic Modes, Resonant Solar and Orbital Forcing [PDF]
Evidence of long-term variability in the upper ocean has emerged for two decades. Most of the issues discussed raise a lot of questions. What is the driver of the decadal oscillation of rainfall in Europe that has been observed since the end of the 20th ...

Resonantly Forced Baroclinic Waves in the Oceans: A New Approach to Climate Variability
How variations in Earth’s orbit pace the glacial-interglacial cycles of the Quaternary are probably one of the greatest mysteries of modern climate science.

Resonant Forcing of the Climate System in Subharmonic Modes
During recent decades observation of climate archives has raised several questions. Concerning the mid-Pleistocene transition problem, conflicting sets of hypotheses highlight either the role of ice sheets or atmospheric carbon dioxide in causing the ...

Anthropogenic and Natural Radiative Forcing: Positive Feedbacks
This article is based on recent work intended to estimate the impact of solar forcing mediated by long-period ocean Rossby waves that are resonantly forced—the ‘Gyral Rossby Waves’ (GRWs).

Anticipation of ENSO: what teach us the resonantly forced baroclinic waves
Geophysical and Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics, 2016AbstractThe El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is characterized based on the date the events are mature. Their time lag defined relative to the central value of successive intervals of 4 years length, e.g. 01/1868–01/1872, 01/1872–01/1876 …, 01/1996–01/2000 … affects their evolution and, for a given amplitude, their variability.
