Second
peak in the far eastern Pacific sea surface temperature anomaly following
strong El Niño events
WonMoo Kim, Wenju Cai
DOI: 10.1002/grl.50697
Key Points
・
There
is a second peak after strong El Nino
・
The
second peak is generated by anomalous ocean circulation
・
There
exists a pause between the peaks due to atmosphere-ocean interaction
3.
Dependence
of abrupt Atlantic meridional ocean circulation changes on climate background
states
Xun Gong, Gregor
Knorr, Gerrit Lohmann and Xu Zhang
DOI:
10.1002/grl.50701
Key Points
・
The
Recovery characteristics of a suppressed AMOC depend on the climate state
・

Transient
simulation of orbital-scale precipitation variation in Monsoonal East Asia and
Arid Central Asia during the Last 150 ka
Xinzhou Li,
Xiaodong Liu, Linjing Qiu, Zhisheng An and Zhi-Yong Yin
DOI: 10.1002/jgrd.50611
Key Points
・
The
past 150ka transient simulation is conducted with the CCSM3
・
There
is an in-phase variation of annual precipitation between E Asia and C Asia
・
Precession
modulates both Asian summer monsoon and winter westerly circulation

El
Niño Southern Oscillation in an ensemble ocean reanalysis and coupled climate
models
Chunxue Yang and Benjamin S. Giese
DOI: 10.1002/jgrc.20284
Key Points
・
The
long-term change of ENSO in ensemble ocean reanalysis and climate models.
・
ENSO
has prominent decadal variability in ensemble reanalysis.
・
Most of
models in CMIP5 have realistic representation of the strength of ENSO.

Statistical
constraints on El Niño Southern Oscillation reconstructions using individual
foraminifera: a sensitivity analysis
Kaustubh
Thirumalai, Judson W. Partin, Charles S. Jackson and Terrence M. Quinn
DOI: 10.1002/palo.20037
Key Points
・
ENSO
reconstructions from individual forams have multiple sources of uncertainty
・
IFA standard
deviation is more precise and accurate than IFA range
・
The
seasonal cycle can play an influential role in the IFA-signal

Gianluca Marino,
Rainer Zahn, Martin Ziegler, Conor Purcell, Gregor Knorr, Ian R. Hall, Patrizia
Ziveri and Henry Elderfield
DOI:
10.1002/palo.20038
Key Points
・ Millennial-scale
variability of the Agulhas Leakage
・ Connection between
Agulhas Leakage and bipolar seesaw
・ Relationship
between Agulhas Leakage and abrupt climate change
