ENSO and Teleconnections Observed Using MISR Cloud Height Anomalies

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Cloud-top height is an important climate variable due to its greenhouse effect, as well as being a useful indicator of circulation patterns. We use effective height anomalies from stereo retrievals at a horizontal resolution of 1.1 km after subtracting ...

Analysis of Climate Variability of Homogeneous Regions of Rainfall Anomalies in Southeast South America (SESA)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
We studied rainfall variability and cyclicity in six Homogeneous Regions of Rainfall Anomalies (HRRA) in Southeast South America (SESA) from 1961 to 2020 to understand the occurrence of droughts and above‐average rainfall. We use a continental analysis scale, focusing on seasonal, interannual, and interdecadal cycles, and their association with modes ...

Combining point correlation maps with self-organising maps to compare observed and simulated atmospheric teleconnection patterns

open access: yesTellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2013
We use a new method based on point correlation maps and self-organising maps (SOMs) to identify teleconnection patterns in 60 yr of National Centres for Environmental Prediction/National Centre for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR) sea level pressure (SLP)

Interannual Variability and Seasonal Predictability of Wind and Solar Resources

open access: yesResources, 2017
Solar and wind resources available for power generation are subject to variability due to meteorological factors. Here, we use a new global climate reanalysis product, Version 2 of the NASA Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (

Detection, Attribution and Projection of Precipitation Structure Changes Over Northwest China

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The precipitation structure shows a change trend of ‘the frequency of light precipitation decreased and the intensity of heavy precipitation increased’; attribution analysis shows that greenhouse gas forcing (GHG) is the main driving factor of precipitation structure change, and the model underestimates its impact, while aerosol forcing (AER) and ...

Recent Changes in Storm Track over the Southeast Europe: A Mechanism for Changes in Extreme Cyclone Variability

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
Recent changes in cyclone tracks crossing Southeast Europe are investigated for the last few decades (1980–1999 compared with 2000–2019) using a developed objective method.

Subseasonal Predictability of Weekly Rainfall and Rainy Season Onset Over East Africa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the subseasonal predictability of weekly rainfall and rainy season onset over East Africa using the ECMWF extended range forecast model. Results show strong skill in forecasting weekly rainfall up to 4 weeks ahead, with higher accuracy during the March–May ‘long rains’ season.

Tracking Summer Greenland Blocking: The Upstream Pathway Shapes Historical Extremes and Future Change

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study investigates summer Greenland atmospheric blocking using the Lagrangian tracking Python package blocktrack applied to ERA5 reanalysis and CMIP6 models. Two types of blocks—upstream (Northern Canada origin) and retrograding (Northern Atlantic origin)—are distinguished, with upstream blocks driving recent observed frequency increasing trends ...

Network-based identification and characterization of teleconnections on different scales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Sea surface temperature (SST) patterns can – as surface climate forcing – affect weather and climate at large distances. One example is El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) that causes climate anomalies around the globe via teleconnections.
