  1. Decadal Teleconnection in the Northern Hemisphere Adviser:Huang-Hsiung Hsu Speaker:Ming-Ying Lee 01Jul2008

  2. How many Decadal to Mutidecadal fluctuations in the Northern Hemisphere ?

  3. Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) Typical wintertime Sea Surface Temperature (colors), Sea Level Pressure (contours) and surface windstress (arrows) anomaly patterns during warm and cool phases of PDO Warm phase Cool phase From: http://jisao.washington.edu/pdo/

  4. Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) Upper panel: AMO index: the ten-year running mean of detrended Atlantic sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA, °C) north of the equator. Lower panel: Correlation of the AMO index with gridded SSTA over the world ocean (all seasons). The thick contour is zero and thin contours denote the 95% significance level.

  9. Cor=0.87 PC2 and Climate Index All index had performed 9-yrs running except the AMO uesd 25-yrs running

  10. What are the impacts of the AMO? Red and blue colored dots represent positive and negative correlations of Northern Hemisphere summer rainfall with the AMO index. When the AMO is positive (warm Atlantic) there is less rainfall over most of the United States and northeastern South America, and more rainfall in southern Alaska, northern Europe, west Africa and Florida.

  11. AMO & hurricanes During warm phases of the AMO, the numbers of tropical storms that mature into severe hurricanes is much greater than during cool phases, at least twice as many. Since the AMO switched to its warm phase around 1995, severe hurricanes have become much more frequent and this has led to a crisis in the insurance industry.

  18. Summary A decadal to mutidecadal pattern in NH is identified. Major characteristics: • Coherent geopentential height (and temperature) perturbation in the upper troposphere, which almost encircles the middle to high latitude of the NH. • The pattern is most apparent over the high-latitude Eurasia continent and the north Pacific in annual mean. Similar signal also appears during the boreal autumn and winter season, but with weaker amplitude. • Decreasing trend in the late 1960s and increasing trend after the late 1980s. • Temporal fluctuation almost coincides with the fluctuation of the AMO and NH mean surface temperature.
