  • Distinct changes in the vertical structure of QBO amplitude due to tropical upwelling and wave forcing

    Open AccessWenwen Xu, Hong‐Li RenARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2025

    The quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) dominates variability of the equatorial stratosphere and shows a weakening trend in the lower levels in recent studies. This study focuses on the vertical structure of QBO amplitude changes in observation, the dynamic reasons involved, and possible changes under future scenarios. The QBO amplitude has an increased trend in the upper levels of stratosphere and a decreased one in the lower during 1960–2022. Resu…

  • Eurasian mid-latitude jet stream bridges an Atlantic to Asia summer teleconnection in heat extremes

    Open AccessYu Nie, Hong‐Li Ren et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2024

    Northern Europe and Northeast Asia, which are climatologically mild and temperate in early summer, both witnessed record-breaking heat extremes in June 2023. With a focus on the subseasonal time scale, this study highlights a teleconnected relationship in historical early-summer heat extremes between Northern Europe and Northeast Asia. By diagnosing the thermal budget and wave activity flux, we show that over one third of historical Northeast Asi…

  • Skilful interannual climate prediction from two large initialised model ensembles

    Open AccessNick Dunstone, Doug Smith et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2020

    Climate prediction skill on the interannual timescale, which sits between that of seasonal and decadal, is investigated using large ensembles from the Met Office and CESM initialised coupled prediction systems. A key goal is to determine what can be skillfully predicted about the coming year when combining these two ensembles together. Annual surface temperature predictions show good skill at both global and regional scales, but skill diminishes …

  • Enhanced mid-to-late winter predictability of the storm track variability in the North Pacific as a contrast with the North Atlantic

    Open AccessYu Nie, Hong‐Li Ren et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2020

    The storm tracks are a major driver of regional extreme weather events. Using the daily output of reanalysis and a latest generation ensemble seasonal forecasting system, this study examines the interannual variability and predictability of the boreal winter storm tracks in the North Pacific and North Atlantic. In both basins, the leading mode of storm track variability describes a latitudinal shifting of the climatological storm tracks. The shif…

  • Stratospheric initial conditions provide seasonal predictability of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oscillations

    Open AccessYu Nie, Adam A Scaife et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2019

    The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), the regional manifestation of the Arctic Oscillation (AO), dominates winter climate variability in Europe and North America. Skilful seasonal forecasting of the winter NAO/AO has been demonstrated recently by dynamical prediction systems. However, the role of initial conditions in this predictability remains unknown. Using a latest generation seasonal forecasting system and reanalysis data, we show that the i…

  • The asymmetric response of Yangtze river basin summer rainfall to El Niño/La Niña

    Open AccessSteven C Hardiman, Nick Dunstone et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2017

    The Yangtze river basin, in South East China, experiences anomalously high precipitation in summers following El Niño. This can lead to extensive flooding and loss of life. However, the response following La Niña has not been well documented. In this study, the response of Yangtze summer rainfall to El Niño/La Niña is found to be asymmetric, with no significant response following La Niña. The nature of this asymmetric response is found to be in g…

  • Skillful seasonal predictions of winter precipitation over southern China

    Open AccessBo Lu, Adam A Scaife et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2017

    Southern China experiences large year-to-year variability in the amount of winter precipitation, which can result in severe social and economic impacts. In this study, we demonstrate prediction skill of southern China winter precipitation by three operational seasonal prediction models: the operational Global seasonal forecasting system version 5 (GloSea5), the NCEP Climate Forecast System (CFSv2) and the Beijing Climate Center Climate System Mod…
