DOI: 10.1002/2016jd025893
Abstract: Nine potential vorticity (PV) regimes over East Asia are identified by applying a Self-Organizing Map and Hierarchical Ascendant Classification regime analysis to the daily PV reanalysis fields on the 300K isentropic surface for December-March 1948–2014.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/joc.7392
Abstract: An important metric for communicating the context and impact of climate change is regionally or nationally averaged temperature anomalies. Quantifying the associated uncertainty adds confidence in the reporting of temperature records and trends. For area‐averaged… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.aaw9950
Abstract: Ocean temperature anomalies in April influence U.S. tornado frequencies through atmospheric teleconnections and moisture transport. Annual tornado occurrences over North America display large interannual variability and a statistical linkage to sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jcli-d-20-0287.1
Abstract: The stratospheric quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) induces temperature anomalies in the lower stratosphere and tropical tropopause layer (TTL) that are cold when lower-stratospheric winds are easterly and warm when winds are westerly. Recent literature has indicated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0280646
Abstract: The northern portion of Washington’s outer coast—known locally as the Olympic coast—is a dynamic region characterized by seasonal upwelling that predominates during summer interrupted by occasional periods of downwelling. We examined spring-to-fall water temperature records… read more here.

DOI: 10.17159/sajs.2021/9304
Abstract: The Sodwana reef system experiences short-term temperature fluctuations that may provide relief from bleaching and be crucial in the future survival of the system. These temperature fluctuations are best described as cold water temperature anomaly… read more here.

DOI: 10.5817/cpr2017-2-22
Abstract: Far-field temperature and geopotential height fields associated with eastern North American early winter (DEC-JAN) extreme cold events are documented since 1950. Based on 19 cases of monthly extreme cold events, two large-scale patterns emerge. First,… read more here.
