Impacts of IOD, ENSO and ENSO Modoki on the Australian Winter Wheat Yields in Recent Decades
Impacts of the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), two different types of El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO): canonical ENSO and ENSO Modoki, on the year-to-year winter wheat yield variations in Australia have been investigated. It is found that IOD plays a dominant role in the recent three decades; the wheat yield is reduced (increased) by -28.4% (12.8%) in the positive (negative) IOD years. Although ...
متن کاملOptimal Growth of Central and East Pacific ENSO Events
Central Pacific (CP) and Eastern Pacific (EP) type ENSO events are inves-2 tigated using linear inverse modeling (LIM). Optimal initial conditions and growth 3 rates for CP or EP ENSO events are identified explicitly using a CP or EP ENSO 4 norm. The dominant difference in initial conditions that lead to CP and EP ENSO 5 events is the role of the second empirical orthogonal function of tropical...
متن کاملThe non-stationary influence of the Atlantic and Pacific Niños on North Eastern South American rainfall
Rainfall variability over the tropical Atlantic region is dominated by changes in the surface temperature of the surrounding oceans. In particular, the oceanic forcing over Northeast of South America is dominated by the Atlantic interhemispheric temperature gradient, which leads its predictability. Nevertheless, in recent decades, the SST influence on rainfall variability in some tropical Atlan...
متن کاملEnhanced biennial variability in the Pacific due to Atlantic capacitor effect
The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the variability in the Pacific subtropical highs (PSHs) have major impacts on social and ecological systems. Here we present an Atlantic capacitor effect mechanism to suggest that the Atlantic is a key pacemaker of the biennial variability in the Pacific including that in ENSO and the PSHs during recent decades. The 'charging' (that is, ENSO imprintin...
متن کاملContrasting Eastern-Pacific and Central-Pacific Types of ENSO
Surface observations and subsurface ocean assimilation datasets are examined to contrast two distinct types of El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in the tropical Pacific: an eastern-Pacific (EP) type and a central-Pacific (CP) type. An analysis method combining empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis and linear regression is used to separate these two types. Correlation and composite anal...
