Interannual variability in western US precipitation
Low-frequency (interannual or longer period) climatic variability is of interest, because of its significance for the understanding and prediction of protracted climatic anomalies. Since precipitation is one of the key variables driving various hydrologic processes, it is useful to examine precipitation records to better understand long-term climate dynamics. Here, we use the multi-taper method...
متن کاملThe Interannual Variability of Tropical Precipitation and Interhemispheric Energy Transport
The interannual variability of the location of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) is strongly (R5 0.75) correlated with the atmospheric heat transport across the equator (AHTEQ) over the satellite era (1979–2009). A 18 northward displacement of the ITCZ is associatedwith 0.34PWof anomalousAHTEQ fromnorth to south. The AHTEQ and precipitation anomalies are both associated with an intensif...
متن کاملHow does sea ice influence δ18O of Arctic precipitation?
This study investigates how variations in Arctic sea ice and sea surface conditions influence δ18O of presentday Arctic precipitation. This is done using the model isoCAM3, an isotope-equipped version of the National Center for Atmospheric Research Community Atmosphere Model version 3. Four sensitivity experiments and one control simulation are performed with prescribed sea surface temperature ...
متن کاملDynamics of Interannual Variability in Summer Precipitation over East Asia*
The summertime mei-yu–baiu rainband over East Asia displays considerable interannual variability. A singular value decomposition (SVD) analysis for interannual variability reveals that precipitation anomalies over the mei-yu–baiu region are accompanied by in situ anomalies of midtropospheric horizontal temperature advection. Anomalous warm (cool) advection causes increased (decreased) mei-yu–ba...
متن کاملInterannual Variability of Monsoon Precipitation and Local Subcloud Equivalent Potential Temperature
The interannual variability of monsoon precipitation is described in the context of a convective quasiequilibrium framework. Using two reanalysis products and two global precipitation datasets, the authors examine linear relationships between seasonal anomalies of precipitation and subcloud equivalent potential temperature (ueb) local to six monsoon regions. This approach provides a single near...
