Eurasia’s transition from colder winters to hotter summers driven by North Atlantic air–sea interaction and Arctic sea ice anomalies
Extreme cold winters and hot summers over Eurasia are intensifying under global warming, posing substantial risks to agriculture, ecosystems, and human health. Here, we show that a colder winter tends to be followed by a hotter summer over Eurasia. This winter-summer extreme temperature reversal is linked to the phase switch of the Arctic oscillation (AO) from winter to summer, which is driven by the North Atlantic air–sea interaction and Arctic …
Rapid high-latitude cooling in the southeastern Pacific sector driven by North Atlantic warming during 1979–2013 in Cesm1
During the 1979–2013 satellite observation period, the sea surface temperature (SST) has cooled substantially in the high-latitude Southern Ocean, with the most pronounced cooling tendency centered in the southeastern Pacific domain. Previous hypotheses have commonly ascribed the recent Southern Ocean cooling to either the tropical eastern Pacific cooling or North Atlantic and tropical Indian Ocean SST warming. However, the mechanisms underpinnin…
Westward shift of tropical cyclogenesis over the southern Indian Ocean
Tropical cyclones (TCs), commonly called cyclones in the southern Indian Ocean (SIO), represent one of the most devastating disasters in the oceanfront regions of Africa. The present study explores the long-term tendency of annual mean TC genesis location in the SIO. A notable westward shift is detected in the SIO TC genesis longitude since 1979, which is linked to an increase in the TC genesis frequency in the southwestern SIO and a decrease in …
Reconciling roles of the South China Sea summer monsoon and Enso in prediction of the Indian Ocean dipole
The Indian Ocean dipole (IOD) is a remarkable interannual variability in the tropical Indian Ocean. The improved prediction of IOD is of a great value because of its large socioeconomic impacts. Previous studies reported that both El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and South China Sea summer monsoon (SM) play a dominant role in the western and eastern pole of the IOD, respectively. They can be used as predictors of the IOD at 3 month lead beyond…
Impact of summer Tibetan Plateau snow cover on the variability of concurrent compound heatwaves in the Northern Hemisphere
Concurrent compound heatwaves (CCHWs) occurring simultaneously in multiple regions in the Northern Hemisphere (NH) pose high-end risks to human health and global supply chains. Over the past decade, CCHWs related to human health have substantially increased in occurrence. However, the mechanisms of the CCHWs remain uncertain. This work has revealed a significant relationship between the variability of summer CCHWs in the NH and changes in quasi-s…
Model consistency for the underlying mechanisms for the Inter-decadal Pacific Oscillation-tropical Atlantic connection
Modeling evidence suggests that the Inter-decadal Pacific Oscillation (IPO) can remotely affect the tropical Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) variability. However, the root causes of the IPO-tropical Atlantic inter-basin teleconnections are not fully understood. Using idealized pacemaker experiments wherein the observed IPO-SST anomalies are specified, we show that a warm-phase IPO-SST anomaly drives a basin-wide SST warming over the tropic…

Impact of North America snow cover on tropical cyclogenesis over the western North Pacific
This study reveals a connection of summer–fall (JJASO) tropical cyclone (TC) genesis over the western North Pacific (WNP) to preceding boreal spring (MAM) North America snow cover (NASC). Sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the tropical central Pacific and subtropical eastern Pacific play a crucial role in relaying influence of the MAM NASC on the following JJASO WNP TC genesis frequency. The increased NASC leads to a decrease in upward se…
Distinct East Asian precipitation variability and predictability in coupled and uncoupled El Niño events
Previous studies have shown different impacts of eastern (EP) and central (CP) Pacific El Niños on the East Asian precipitation. This study reveals distinct precipitation anomalies over East Asia in coupled and uncoupled El Niños. The uncoupled warm events in 1979, 2004, 2014, 2018, and 2019, which occurred in the autumn–winter transition, represent an unusual form of El Niño diversity. The sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTA) in the western …
Contrasting contributions of flows on different time scales to tropical cyclone tracks over the South China Sea
This study investigates the relative contributions of components of flows on multiple time scales to westward and eastward-moving tropical cyclones (TCs) over the South China Sea (SCS) from a local and instantaneous perspective of TC position along the TC tracks during June to October from 1965 to 2015. The total steering flows obtained by vertical integration of winds from 850 to 300 hPa averaged along the entire TC tracks are separated into cli…
Evolution of the East Asian winter land temperature trends during 1961–2018
Detecting the contributions of internal variability and external forcing to the evolution of surface air temperature (SAT) trend at regional scales is a challenge. Based on the observations and large-ensemble simulations of climate models, we estimate the contribution of the internal and forced components to the evolution of East Asian winter land SAT (EAWT) during 1961–2018. Although the external forcing induced EAWT trends show a slow increase,…
