(El Niño) events and at or below the -0.5 anomaly for cool (La Niña) events. The threshold is further broken down into Weak (with a 0.5 to 0.9 SST anomaly), Moderate (1.0 to 1.4), Strong (1.5 to 1.9) and Very Strong (≥ 2.0) events. For the purpose of this report for ...
For El Nino events of the same type but with different intensities, moderate events induce large increases in surface aerosol concentrations over the entire eastern China, while strong and weak events lead to obvious decreases in the surface aerosol concentration over northern China. These differences...
(1978) we compiled evidence on El Nino developments, their intensities, and their fre quency of occurrence. However, at that time we did not consider the possibility oflong-term variations in El Nino intensity with time. In Quinn et a1. (1981) we found the Chilean subtropical rainfall ...
The financial losses incurred by a TC are determined based on various factors, particularly, the TC intensity at landfall (landfall intensity);3,4 stronger landfall intensities are generally associated with greater damage, and thus unprecedented landfall intensities imply catastrophic damage. The Typhoon...
Regardless of the data sets obtained from observations and long-term (1,300years) model simulations, it is found that the WNPAC is strongly developed with larger circulation intensities when El Nino co-occurs with a positive phase of IOD (i.e., El Nino-IOD coupling), whereas it is weakly...
The El Ni n o Index, defined as 4 intensities (very strong, strong, moderate, weak) in Oceanic Niño Index (ONI), was positively correlated with the average sunspot number at each intensity. The La Niña Index, defined as 3 intensities (strong, moderate, weak) in ONI, was...
Associated with the SOI point processes of upcrossings the positive level and downcrossings the negative level can be interpreted as sequences of El Niño and La Niña occurrences. In the intensities of these processes we emphasize harmonics with periods of 74 and 320 years and prove their ...
o years.It indicates that super El Ni?o events play a dominant role in the intensities and tracks of WNP TCs.However,there were clear differences in both numbers and positions of TC genesis among the different super El Ni?o years.These features could be attributed to the collective impact ...

The El Nino Index, defined as 4 intensities (very strong, strong, moderate, weak) in Oceanic Niño Index (ONI), was positively correlated with the average sunspot number at each intensity. The La Niña Index, defined as 3 intensities (strong, moderate, weak) in ONI, was negatively ...
