This review paper presents an assessment of the current state of knowledge and capability
in seasonal climate prediction at the end of the 20th century. The discussion covers the full …

This chapter reviews the progress made in the past decade in understanding tropical
Atlantic climate variability. In addition to an equatorially anti-symmetric seasonal cycle forced …

The Pantanal region in South America is one of the world's largest wetlands. Since 2019, the

The large-scale ocean–atmosphere patterns that influence the interannual variability of
Caribbean–Central American rainfall are examined. The atmospheric circulation over this …

Oceanic heat sources disturb the atmosphere, which, to come back to its initial state,
disperses waves. These waves affect the climate in remote regions, characterizing the …

The Western Hemisphere warm pool (WHWP) of water warmer than 28.5° C extends from
the eastern North Pacific to the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean, and at its peak, overlaps …

Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analyses (rotated or not) are widely used in climate
research. In recent years there have been several studies in which EOF analyses were used …
