We test the hypothesis that climate and environmental conditions are becoming favorable for dengue transmission in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Sea Level Pressure (SLP), Mean Sea Level (MSL), Wind, Sea Surface Temperature (SST), Air Surface Temperature (AST), Rainfall, and confirmed dengue cases were analyzed. We evaluated the dengue incidence and environmental data with Principal Component Analysis,...

[1] A link is found between the variability of Fram Strait sea ice export and the phase of zonal wave 1 in SLP for the period 1958– 1997. Previous studies have found that the link between ice export through Fram Strait and the NAO is inconsistent over time scales longer than the last two decades. Inconsistent and low correlations are also found between Fram Strait ice export and the AO index. T...

We investigate the effects of solar forcing on North Atlantic (NA) summer climate, in climate simulations with Earth System Models (ESMs), over preindustrial past millennium (AD 850–1849). use one simulation and a four-member ensemble performed MPI-ESM-P CESM-LME models, respectively, forced only by low-scaling variations Total Solar Irradiance (TSI). apply linear methods (correlation regressio...

The study of ocean bottom pressure (OBP) helps to understand the changes in sea level budget and deep circulation. In this study, characteristics mechanisms interannual OBP variability Southern Indian Ocean are examined using Gravity Recovery Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite data from 2003 2016. Results show that there two energetic centers (50°–60°S, 40°–60°E 45°–60°S, 80°–120°E). magnitud...

An unprecedented strengthening of Pacific trade winds since the late 1990s (ref. 1) has caused widespread climate perturbations, including rapid sea-level rise in the western tropical Pacific2–5, strengthening of Indo-Pacific ocean currents6,7, and an increased uptake of heat in the equatorial Pacific thermocline1. The corresponding intensification of the atmospheric Walker circulation is also ...

abstract: identification of spatial-temporal anomalies sea level pressure in part of northern hemisphere was the main aim in this research. for this purpose six hourly data used from the to eastern longitude and to northern latitude. in this location, there are 825 pixels to geographical degree. therefore, database extent created. in this matrix, 825 are number of the pixels at that location an...

In this study, a synoptic climatological approach is employed to assess the relationship between the frequency of circulation patterns (CPs) and the latitude of mid-September sea ice minima in the western Arctic. Fifteen CPs are created via principal component analysis and cluster analysis from daily NCEP/NCAR reanalysis sea-level pressure (SLP) fields across a grid from 50 to 90◦N and 150◦E–10...

[1] Two aspects of the onset of a warm event in the Southern Oscillation are 1) the subtropical South Pacific High is weakened in early southern winter which weakens subtropical sea level pressure (SLP) gradients, and thus reduces the trade winds and upwelling along the equator, and 2) in the months that follow, and particularly during the mature phase of the warm event during southern summer, ...

This paper presents the results of measurements of aerosol optical properties which were made between 2006 and 2008 within the framework of various international projects in different locations such as Spitsbergen, northern Norway and Crete. The investigations were made under different baric topography conditions and in various seasons of the year which facilitated the investigations of spatial...
