A hierarchy of El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) prediction schemes has been
developed during the Tropical Ocean‐Global Atmosphere (TOGA) program which includes …

A hierarchy of ENSO (El Niño/Southern Oscillation) prediction schemes has been developed
which includes statistical schemes and physical models. The statistical models are, in …

Beginning from the hypothesis by Bjerknes [1969] that ocean‐atmosphere interaction was
essential to the El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon, the Tropical Ocean …

Using a dynamically motivated analysis of observations, and an intermediate-level coupled
model, the interannual variability within the equatorial Atlantic is studied. It is found that a …

A data‐based hypothesis is presented on the mechanism of the El Niño‐Southern
Oscillation (ENSO), a major determinant of interannual global climate variability. The …

Wavelet transforms, which can unfold signals in both time and frequency domains, are used
to analyze the Comprehensive Ocean and Atmospheric Data Sets for the period 1870–1988 …

Synoptic and Dynamic Climatology provides the first comprehensive account of the
dynamical behaviour and mechanisms of the global climate system and its components …

Coupled ocean-atmosphere models exhibit a variety of forms of tropical interannual
variability that may be understood as different flow regimes of the coupled system. The …

The delayed oscillator, the western Pacific oscillator, the recharge–discharge oscillator, and
the advective–reflective oscillator have been proposed to interpret the oscillatory nature of …

Wavelet transforms (WLT) and waveform transforms (WFT) are effective tools that reveal
temporal structure of nonstationary time series. The authors discuss principles and practical …
