External forcing causes multidecadal covariability in Southern Atlantic and Indian oceans

Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in the southern Atlantic and Indian Oceans (SAIOs) show prominent multidecadal variations, with notable impacts on rainfalls over southern-hemisphere continents. However, the origins of these ...

North or south? How sea surface temperature anomalies in the North Pacific can influence the Arctic polar vortex

Previous studies have found that phase changes in the sea surface temperature (SST) of the North Pacific can modulate the variations in the stratospheric polar vortex (SPV) in the Arctic, which is a circulation of winds high ...
