Understanding Lead Times of Warm-Water-Volumes to ENSO Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies

Dynamics and Implications for ENSO's Subsurface Ocean Temperature Vertical Dipole Anomalies in the Central Equatorial Pacific

Recent classification of El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) into two types, Eastern (EP) and Central (CP) events, has highlighted the …

Understanding Lead Times of Warm Water Volumes to ENSO Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies

Predicting El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events in advance has profound socio-economic benefits because of ENSO’s impacts on …

Advancing Understanding of ENSO’s Relationship with Equatorial Pacific Thermocline

Abstract: Equatorial Pacific thermocline plays an important role in El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycles. On one hand, …

ENSO Dynamics in the E3SM-1-0, CESM2, and GFDL-CM4 Climate Models

This study examines historical simulations of ENSO in the E3SM-1-0, CESM2, and GFDL-CM4 climate models, provided by three leading U.S. …

On the Breakdown of ENSO’s Relationship with Thermocline Depth in the Central‐Equatorial Pacific

Here we show that in the central equatorial Pacific ENSO subsurface temperature correlates poorly with thermocline but well with sea …

Simple ENSO Models

The fundamental dynamical mechanisms of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon have been extensively studied since Bjerknes …

A robust assessment of the Bjerknes-Wyrtki-Jin indices for ENSO growth rate and periodicity

Abstract: Quantifying coupled ocean-atmosphere feedback processes for El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is important for advancing …
