DOI: 10.1002/joc.6303
Abstract: Changes in tropical rainfall variability under global warming are crucial to rainfall changes induced by tropical sea surface temperature (SST) variability modes, which exerts severe influences on human society and the natural environment. As the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/qj.3759
Abstract: Funding information Submitted on July 28, 2019 Revised onDecember 27, 2019 For tropical rainfall, there are several potential sources of predictability, including synoptic-scale convectively coupled equatorial waves (CCEWs) and intraseasonal oscillations such as theMadden–Julian Oscillation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00382-017-3812-9
Abstract: State-of-the-art global coupled models used in seasonal prediction systems and climate projections still have important deficiencies in representing the boreal summer tropical rainfall climatology. These errors include prominently a severe dry bias over all the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2017.03.017
Abstract: Paleoclimate studies of tropical rainfall have led to a recognition of a predominant pattern of anti-phase behavior between the Northern and Southern hemispheres at both orbital and millennial timescales. Less certain is how regional tropical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020gl088664
Abstract: The El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) has previously been shown to influence the winter North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). Here we investigate the ENSO‐NAO teleconnection in historical and RCP8.5 scenario CMIP5 simulations and show a future strengthening… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41558-018-0244-4
Abstract: The subtropical highs are semi-permanent atmospheric features that strengthen during April–September, exerting a large influence on regional rainfall1–5. Previous studies have focused on the changes of subtropical highs during their peak season (June–August)6–8, but little… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jcli-d-22-0404.1
Abstract: This study, based on an analysis with observational and reanalysis data, highlights seasonal tropical-extratropical atmospheric teleconnections originating from tropical rainfall modes unrelated to the Niño 3.4 index for northern winters. The mode decomposition for tropical… read more here.
