ENSO Impact on Winter Precipitation in the Southeast United States through a Synoptic Climate Approach

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
The ENSO impact on winter precipitation in the Southeast United States was analyzed from the perspective of daily weather types (WTs). We calculated the dynamic contribution associated with the change in frequency of the WTs and the thermodynamic ...

Understanding the cold biases of CMIP5 models over China with weather regimes

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research, 2021
Most models in the fifth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) underestimate the surface air temperature over China in both winter and summer. Understanding the weather regime in association with the simulated temperature variability
