ENSO related variability in the Southern Hemisphere , 1948 – 2000
[1] The spatiotemporal evolution of Southern Hemisphere climate variability is diagnosed based on the use of the NCEP reanalysis (1948–2000) dataset. Using the MTMSVD analysis method, significant narrowband variability is isolated from the multi-variate dataset. It is found that the ENSO signal exhibits statistically significant behavior at quasiquadrennial (3–6 yr) timescales for the full time...
متن کاملRainfall reductions over Southern Hemisphere semi-arid regions: the role of subtropical dry zone expansion
Since the late 1970s, Southern Hemisphere semi-arid regions such as southern-coastal Chile, southern Africa, and southeastern Australia have experienced a drying trend in austral autumn, predominantly during April and May. The rainfall reduction coincides with a poleward expansion of the tropical belt and subtropical dry zone by around 2°-3° in the same season. This has raised questions as to w...
متن کاملHydrologic variation during the last 170,000 years in the southern hemisphere tropics of South America
Despite the hypothesized importance of the tropics in the global climate system, few tropical paleoclimatic records extend to periods earlier than the last glacial maximum (LGM), about 20,000 years before present. We present a well-dated 170,000-year time series of hydrologic variation from the southern hemisphere tropics of South America that extends from modern times through most of the penul...
متن کاملSevere convection and lightning in subtropical South America
Satellite radar and radiometer data show that subtropical South America has the world’s deepest convective storms, robust mesoscale convective systems, and very frequent large hail. We determine severe weather characteristics for the most intense precipitation features seen by satellite in this region. In summer, hail and lightning concentrate over the foothills of western Argentina. Lightning ...
متن کاملImpacts of four northern-hemisphere teleconnection patterns on atmospheric circulations over Eurasia and the Pacific
The impacts of four teleconnection patterns on atmospheric circulation components over Eurasia and the Pacific region, from low to high latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere (NH), were investigated comprehensively in this study. The patterns, as identified by the Climate Prediction Center (USA), were the East Atlantic (EA), East Atlantic/ Western Russia (EAWR), Polar/Eurasia (POLEUR), and Scandi...
