Nino Pacific Sea Level Pressure Nina Nino Nina Clim. of the month, summer 2012
Easterly trade winds remained slightly enhanced over the west-central equatorial Pacific, slightly weaker than average across the east-central equatorial Pacific. no clear atmospheric response to the positive SST anomalies. Enhanced convection across Indonesia =>the atmospheric circulation is not yet reflecting El Niño. Oceanic and atmospheric anomalies reflect ENSO-neutral conditions.

Some highlights Clim. of the month, summer 2012
North Atlantic and Europe The 500-hPa circulation during August featured a continued negative phase (-1.4) of the NAO: persistent positive height anomalies over Greenland and negative height anomalies over the eastern North Atlantic. Clim. of the month, summer 2012
Precipitation 2012 above-average precipitation over Great Britain, below-average precipitation in Southern Europe well above-average temperatures across southern Europe, anomalous warmth extending eastward into southwestern Russia Clim. of the month, summer 2012
Precipitation 2012 Dipole of precipitation in South America. Very high temperature anomalies in Eastern South America. Clim. of the month, summer 2012
African Sahel Clim. of the month, summer 2012
African Sahel Monsoon was again enhanced during August 2012: well above-average precipitation across the African Sahel and Sudan regions. West African Monsoon area-averaged precipitation totals above-average since May. Overall, the west African monsoon system has been enhanced since 1995, in association with the warm phase of theAtlantic Multi-decadal Oscillation (AMO). Clim. of the month, summer 2012

Antarctic Ozone hole By the end of August 2012, the ozone hole spanned only 4 million square kilometers, far smaller than the 2002-2011 mean of 18 million square kilometers. Clim. of the month, summer 2012
