[HTML][HTML] Upper ocean response to tropical cyclones: A review

H Zhang, H He, WZ Zhang, D Tian - Geoscience Letters, 2021 - Springer
Tropical cyclones (TCs) are strong natural hazards that are important for local and global air–
sea interactions. This manuscript briefly reviews the knowledge about the upper ocean …

Review on observational studies of western tropical Pacific Ocean circulation and climate

D Hu, F Wang, J Sprintall, L Wu, S Riser… - Journal of Oceanology …, 2020 - Springer
Abstract The Western Tropical Pacific (WTP) Ocean holds the largest area of warm water (>
28° C) in the world ocean referred to as the Western Pacific Warm Pool (WPWP), which …

ENSO and tropical cyclones

II Lin, SJ Camargo, CM Patricola… - El Niño southern …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
One of ENSO's most important influences is its worldwide modulation of tropical cyclone
(TC) activity. TCs impact millions of people annually and can devastate life and property …

[HTML][HTML] A multiscale model for El Niño complexity

N Chen, X Fang, JY Yu - npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2022 - nature.com
Abstract El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) exhibits diverse characteristics in spatial
pattern, peak intensity, and temporal evolution. Here we develop a three-region multiscale …

Two types of the East Asian cold surge and their impacts on El Niño

J Feng, T Lian, Y Ding, X Li, C Sun… - Geophysical Research …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Case studies have shown that the East Asian cold surge (CS) in winter exerts considerable
impact on the development of El Niño by changing the surface wind over the western …

A strong 2023/24 El Niño is staged by tropical Pacific Ocean heat content buildup

T Lian, J Wang, D Chen, T Liu… - Ocean-Land-Atmosphere …, 2023 - spj.science.org
The upper ocean heat content in the equatorial Pacific usually serves as a primary precursor
for an upcoming El Niño, while strong atmospheric perturbations such as westerly wind burst …

Improving the Forecasting of El Niño Amplitude Based on an Ensemble Forecast Strategy for Westerly Wind Bursts

C Ji, M Mu, X Fang, L Tao - Journal of Climate, 2023 - journals.ametsoc.org
Abstract The forecasting of El Niño amplitude remains uncertain, with false alarms or
underestimations often occurring. It has been suggested that westerly wind bursts (WWBs) …

[HTML][HTML] The essential role of westerly wind bursts in ENSO dynamics and extreme events quantified in model “wind stress shaving” experiments

S Yu, AV Fedorov - Journal of Climate, 2022 - journals.ametsoc.org
Westerly wind bursts (WWBs)—brief but strong westerly wind anomalies in the equatorial
Pacific—are believed to play an important role in El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) …

The role of westerly wind bursts during different seasons versus ocean heat recharge in the development of extreme El Niño in climate models

S Yu, AV Fedorov - Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
The mechanisms and predictability of extreme El Niño events, as in 1982, 1997, and 2015,
remain unclear. Here we investigate the relative roles of the ocean initial heat recharge and …

The Pacific Meridional Mode Influences ENSO by Inducing Springtime Near-Equatorial TCs in the Western North Pacific

Q Chu, T Lian, R Hu, G Feng, D Chen - Journal of Climate, 2023 - journals.ametsoc.org
Previous research has shown that tropical cyclones in the near-equatorial western North
Pacific (NE-WNP TCs) in boreal spring are associated with the onset of El Niño–Southern …
