Conclusions • Recent observed trade wind trend unprecedented • Missing in CMIP models • Cooling impact can account for the hiatus • Ocean heat uptake • Teleconnections from cool East Pacific SST • Hiatus could persist for much of the present decade • Warming out of hiatus likely rapid England et al.
