Tracking ocean heat uptake during the surface warming hiatus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ocean heat uptake is observed to penetrate deep into the Atlantic and Southern Oceans during the recent hiatus of global warming. Here we show that the deep heat penetration in these two basins is not unique to the hiatus but is characteristic of ...

Intensity dependence of El Niño and La Niña evolution and mixed‐layer heat‐budget processes

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) intensity modulates the spatial, temporal, and dynamical evolution of events strongly. El Niño SST anomalies shift westward with decreasing intensity, while La Niña anomalies remain spatially fixed. Stronger events initiate earlier and persist longer than weak events.

Unveiling the Indian Ocean forcing on winter eastern warming – western cooling pattern over North America

open access: yesNature Communications
While the tropical Pacific teleconnection to North America has been studied extensively, the impact of the Indian Ocean on North American climate has received less attention.

Central Tropical Indian Ocean heat Budget Analysis During Indian Ocean Tripole events

open access: yesJournal of Information Systems Engineering and Management
The Indian Ocean Tripole (IOT) mode, associated with the third mode of sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA) variability, exhibits a unique pattern characterized by positive SSTA dominating the central Tropical Indian Ocean (TIO), while negative SSTA prevail in the western and eastern regions. This distinct mode of variability significantly influences

A multimodel intercomparison study of variable‐resolution global models with grid refinement over the Arctic and Antarctic

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We document the protocol and first results from the first ever coordinated multimodel variable‐resolution experiment set with refinement over the polar regions. We find that the refinement generally yields model‐dependent effects. The most consistent improvement is an amelioration of the upper‐level cold bias in the polar regions that translates into ...

Analyses of the relationship between drought occurrences and their causal factors in Tigray Region, Northern Ethiopia

open access: yesTellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2020
Drought is controlled and enhanced by changes in the local and global climate factors. The changes in the global factors mainly occur on the vast oceanic surfaces, while the changes in the local factors occur in the area of drought influence. In order to

A retrospective on the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
The 2025 Atlantic hurricane season was intermittent, with extended quiet periods separated by three clusters of activity. The broad‐scale conditions were often unfavourable for cyclogenesis and common drivers of activity such as La Niña were weak, but well above‐average sea temperatures still supported intense storms.

Stolidobranch ascidians from the tropical western Indian Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesZoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2002
Coastal ascidians collected over two centuries from Suez to Mozambique have been successively deposited in the MNHN and are now described and figured. Some of them were already known from the Indian Ocean, others are common to the Pacific, and some others are new species.

Cyclone Ditwah (2025): moderate‐intensity tropical cyclone brings record flooding and damage to Sri Lanka

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
Cyclone Ditwah (2025) made landfall in Sri Lanka as a tropical cyclone with only moderate intensity winds (~65–75kmh−1). Yet, its prolonged heavy rainfall also led to landslides and widespread flooding across Sri Lanka and the southern Indian states, with the combined effects of hazards causing impacts totalling 4.1 billion USD. Ditwah is, therefore, a
