Interdecadal changes on the seasonal prediction of the western North Pacific summer climate around the late 1970s and early 1990s [PDF]

, 2016
Identifying predictability and the corresponding sources for the western North Pacific (WNP) summer climate in the case of non-stationary teleconnections during recent decades benefits for further improvements of long-range prediction on the WNP and East

Comprehensive effects of interdecadal change of sea surface temperature increase in the Indo-Pacific Ocean on the warming-wetting of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

Scientific Reports, 2022
The correlation characteristics between anomalous changes in summer precipitation on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) and the high-impact areas of global sea-surface temperature (SST) are mainly studied in this paper.

Long-term trends in ambient and anthropogenic noise in central and western Pacific Ocean [PDF]

Proceedings of Meetings on Acoustics, 2016
Multi-year studies of ambient noise trends are uncommon, yet they can provide information on the level of natural variability in noise to which animals are exposed, as well as an idea of changing noise level trends. To investigate long-term trends in low frequency (

Factors Affecting ENSO’s Period [PDF]

, 2008
Accurately capturing the observed mean period of ENSO in general circulation models (GCMs) is often challenging, and it is therefore useful to understand which parameters and processes affect this period.

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

The Interdecadal Change of Relationship Between Summer Water Vapor Content Over Tibetan Plateau and Spring Sea Surface Temperature in Indian Ocean

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The interannual relationship between the spring sea surface temperature over the western tropical Indian Ocean (WTIO SST) and summer water vapor content over Tibetan Plateau (TPWVC) enhances significantly after 1992/1993.

Colder Eastern Equatorial Pacific and Stronger Walker Circulation in the Early 21st Century: Separating the Forced Response to Global Warming From Natural Variability

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Since the early 1990s the Pacific Walker circulation shows a multi‐decadal strengthening, which contradicts future model projections. Whether this trend, evident in many climate indices especially before the 2015 El Niño, reflects the coupled ocean ...

The 1996 U.S. Purse Seine Fishery for Tropical Tunas in the Central-Western Pacific Ocean [PDF]

, 1997
The U.S. tropical tuna purse seine fleet has fished the central-western Pacific Ocean under the South Pacific Tuna Treaty since 1988. The 1996 fishery was the poorest since the start ofthe Treaty.

Ontogenetic changes and sexual dimorphism in the cranium and mandible of the Atlantic walrus (Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus L.)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Walruses have been an important subsistence and cultural resource for humans and have been exploited for millennia across their distribution. This exploitation has contributed to severe declines in several populations and local extirpations.

Seasonal Evolution of Chlorophyll-a in the North Indian Ocean Associated with the Indian Ocean Dipole and Two Types of El Niño Events

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
To investigate the main modes of interannual variation of chlorophyll-a (Chla) with seasonal evolution and its variation cycle in the North Indian Ocean based on satellite-derived products during 1998–2016, a season-reliant empirical orthogonal function (
