The role of the Indian Ocean in controlling the formation of multiyear El Niños through subtropical ENSO dynamics

YF Lin, JY Yu - Journal of Climate, 2024 - journals.ametsoc.org
This study explores the key differences between single-year (SY) and multiyear (MY) El Niño
properties and examines their relative importance in causing the diverse evolution of El …

New insights into multiyear La Nina dynamics from the perspective of a near-annual ocean process

F Liu, W Zhang, FF Jin, F Jiang, J Boucharel… - Journal of …, 2023 - journals.ametsoc.org
Abstract El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) exhibits highly asymmetric temporal
evolutions between its warm and cold phases. While El Niño events usually terminate …

How the central-western equatorial Pacific easterly wind in early 2022 affects the third-year La Niña occurrence

M Chen, C Gao, RH Zhang - Climate Dynamics, 2024 - Springer
After consecutive two years with the La Niña phenomenon in 2020–2021, cold sea surface
temperature (SST) anomalies in the central-eastern equatorial Pacific persisted in 2022 …

Revisiting the role of atmospheric initial signals in predicting ENSO

J Wu, JJ Luo, T Doi, T Yamagata… - Journal of Climate, 2024 - journals.ametsoc.org
Abstract El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) provides an important source of global
seasonal–interannual predictability, while its prediction encounters bottlenecks. Besides the …

The asymmetry of air-sea coupled strength between the first-year and second-year La Niña events

TW Cao, F Zheng, XH Fang - Climate Dynamics, 2024 - Springer
Abstract Compared to the La Niña event in the first-year, the air-sea system is not well
coupled during the second-year. This is evidenced by the generally weaker anomalous sea …

Roles of tropical-Pacific interannual–interdecadal variability in forming the super long La Niña events

R Wang, HL Ren, M Liu - Climate Dynamics, 2024 - Springer
Abstract The super long La Niña phenomenon, which has an extremely long duration, like
the recent 2020–2023 La Niña event, is less concerned than the super El Niño. In this study …
