Evaluation and comparison of CMIP6 and CMIP5 model performance in simulating the seasonal extreme precipitation in the Western North Pacific and East Asia

open access: yes, 2021
This study evaluates the performance of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phases 6 models (CMIP6) in simulating the seasonal evolution and extreme precipitation indices in the western North Pacific and East Asia region (WNP-EA), and compare the ...

An anomalous warm-season trans-Pacific atmospheric river linked to the 2021 western North America heatwave

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2022
Atmospheric rivers are long and narrow bands of enhanced water vapour transport concentrated in the lower troposphere. Many studies have documented the important role of cold-season atmospheric rivers in producing heavy precipitation and extreme flooding

Deep water pathways in the North Pacific Ocean revealed by Lagrangian particle tracking

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Lagrangian particle tracking experiments are conducted to investigate the pathways of deep water in the North Pacific Ocean. The flow field is taken from a state-of-the-art deep circulation simulation.

Seasonal cycles of surface layer salinity in the Pacific Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2010
The seasonal variability of surface layer salinity (SLS) is examined in the Pacific Ocean between 40° S and 60° N using a variety of data sources. Significant seasonal cycles were found in 5 regions: 1) The western North Pacific, 2) The northeastern ...

The Lagged Effect of Anthropogenic Aerosol on East Asian Precipitation during the Summer Monsoon Season

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
The authors investigated the lagged effect of anthropogenic aerosols (AAs) during the premonsoon season (April–May–June) on the East Asian precipitation during the postmonsoon season (July–August) using the aerosol optical depth (AOD) from a satellite ...

Investigating the Characteristics of Tropical Cyclone Size in the Western North Pacific from 1981 to 2009

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Tropical cyclone (TC) size is an important parameter for estimating TC risks, such as precipitation distribution, gale-force wind damage, and storm surge.

How has the North Pacific Gyre Oscillation affected peak season tropical cyclone genesis over the western North Pacific from 1965 to 2020?

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2022
The North Pacific Gyre Oscillation (NPGO) is an important mode of decadal variability in North Pacific sea surface temperature (SST) and sea surface height.

The Most Effective Remote Forcing in Causing U.S.‐Wide Heat Extremes as Revealed by CESM Green's Function Experiments

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
We make use of the Community Atmosphere Model version 5 Green's function q‐flux perturbation experiments to explore the most effective remote forcing in driving U.S.‐wide summer heat extremes.

Tropical–North Pacific Climate Linkages over the Past Four Centuries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Analyses of instrumental data demonstrate robust linkages between decadal-scale North Pacific and tropical Indo-Pacific climatic variability. These linkages encompass common regime shifts, including the noteworthy 1976 transition in Pacific climate ...

On the origin of the North Pacific arcs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We present a new hypothesis that relates global plate tectonics to the formation of marginal basins, island arcs, spreading ridges and arc-shaped mountain belts around the North Pacific Ocean.
