A method for disentangling El Niño–mean state interaction
[1] The amplitude of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is known to fluctuate in long records derived from observations and general circulation models (GCMs), even when driven by constant external forcings. This involves an interaction between the ENSO cycle and the background mean state, which affects the climatological precipitation over the eastern equatorial Pacific. The changes in cli...
متن کاملEl Niño and health.
El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a climate event that originates in the Pacific Ocean but has wide-ranging consequences for weather around the world, and is especially associated with droughts and floods. The irregular occurrence of El Niño and La Niña events has implications for public health. On a global scale, the human effect of natural disasters increases during El Niño. The effect o...
متن کاملDisentangling different types of El Niño episodes by evolving climate network analysis.
Complex network theory provides a powerful toolbox for studying the structure of statistical interrelationships between multiple time series in various scientific disciplines. In this work, we apply the recently proposed climate network approach for characterizing the evolving correlation structure of the Earth's climate system based on reanalysis data for surface air temperatures. We provide a...
متن کاملPeruvians Sick of El Niño
Peruvians Sick of El Nifio As Peruvian officials braced for the effects of El Ninio in 1997, they suspected they might be hit with a rash of diarrhea cases. They were correct, as the diarrhea caseload in children doubled during the worst stretches of a 16-month period of above-average temperatures. An international team of researchers led by William Checkley, a researcher in the Department of I...
متن کاملEl Niño and human health.
The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the best known example of quasi-periodic natural climate variability on the interannual time scale. It comprises changes in sea temperature in the Pacific Ocean (El Niño) and changes in atmospheric pressure across the Pacific Basin (the Southern Oscillation), together with resultant effects on world weather. El Niño events occur at intervals of 2-7 yea...
