Skilful multi-year predictions of tropical trans-basin climate variability
Tropical Pacific sea surface temperature anomalies influence the atmospheric circulation, impacting climate far beyond the tropics. The predictability of the corresponding atmospheric signals is typically limited to less than 1 year lead time. Here we present observational and modelling evidence for multi-year predictability of coherent trans-basin climate variations that are characterized by a...
متن کاملSeasonal forecasting of fire over Kalimantan, Indonesia
Large-scale fires occur frequently across Indonesia, particularly in the southern region of Kalimantan and eastern Sumatra. They have considerable impacts on carbon emissions, haze production, biodiversity, health, and economic activities. In this study, we demonstrate that severe fire and haze events in Indonesia can generally be predicted months in advance using predictions of seasonal rainfa...
متن کاملSeasonal Predictions for Wildland Fire Severity
The National Fire Danger Rating System (NFDRS) indices deduced from the monthly to seasonal predictions of a meteorological climate model at 50-km grid space from January 1998 through December 2003 were used in conjunction with a probability model to predict the expected number of fire occurrences and large fires over the U.S. West. The short-term climate forecasts are ongoing experimental prod...
متن کاملRegional climate information: Can we provide skilful regional climate predictions at seasonal to decadal time scales and reliable and actionable long term regional climate change projections?
Many aspects of human societies, such as food production, water availability and management, health, energy production and consumption etc., depend critically on climate variability and change. While some countries have the resources and infrastructure necessary to respond to the variability of climate, others are more vulnerable, to the point that large climate anomalies and extremes can cause...
متن کاملOcean–Atmosphere Basis for Seasonal Climate Forecasting
Paul S. Schopf George Mason University There are many phenomena of interest in the atmosphere and ocean, only some of which are relevant for seasonal forecasting. One way of identifying the processes likely to be active is through scale analysis which identifies the important terms in the governing equations and highlights the importance of geostrophic balance. Simple arguments for Rossby waves...
