The ENSO Signal in Tropical Tropospheric Temperature
The authors address the interannual signal in the tropical mean temperature of the free troposphere. This signal was shown by Soden to be well simulated by a wide range of general circulation models, given the observed sea surface temperature (SST) as a boundary condition. This suggests that the mechanism by which SST anomalies are communicated to the atmosphere might be understood simply as mo...
متن کاملSensitivity of inland decay of North Atlantic tropical cyclones to soil parameters
Using the HURDAT best track analysis of track and intensity of tropical cyclones that made landfall over the continental United States during the satellite era (1980–2005), we analyze the role of land surface variables on the cyclone decay process. The land surface variables considered in the present study included soil parameters (soil heat capacity and its surrogate soil bulk density), roughn...
متن کاملTwo distinct roles of Atlantic SSTs in ENSO variability: North Tropical Atlantic SST and Atlantic Nio
[1] Two distinct roles of the Atlantic sea surface temperatures (SSTs), namely, the North Tropical Atlantic (NTA) SST and the Atlantic Niño, on the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) variability are investigated using the observational data from 1980 to 2010 and coupled model experiments. It appears that the NTA SST and the Atlantic Niño can be used as two independent predictors for predicting...
متن کاملEffect of ENSO and the MJO on Western North Pacific Tropical Cyclones
Prior work has suggested that Rossby wave accumulation in the lower troposphere may be an important mechanism for the development of synoptic-scale disturbances in the western north Pacific in northern summer. This work examines the intraseasonal and interannual variability of wave accumulation by computing the barotropic wave activity flux divergence at 850 hPa for different phases of the Madd...
متن کاملThe Sensitivity of the Tropical Hydrological Cycle to ENSO
Satellite observations of temperature, water vapor, precipitation and longwave radiation are used to characterize the variation of the tropical hydrologic and energy budgets associated with the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO). As the tropical oceans warm during an El Niño event, the precipitation intensity, water vapor mass, and temperature of the tropical atmosphere are observed to increas...
