Pacific Northwest Plants Record Multiannual Atmosphere–Ocean Circulation PatternscarbonisotopesplantsdecadalPacificdiscriminationCarbon isotope ecology can be used as a measure of plant water stress. Plant water stress is complicated: multiple factors (e.g., evapotranspiration rates, temperature, precipitation,...
What role wind-driven ocean circulation changes play in shaping the historical SST trend pattern remains poorly understood as they are often hard to fully untangle from other mechanisms. To address this question, here we compare two Community Earth System Model version 2 (CESM2) large ensembles, ...
A thorough understanding of the Pacific Ocean circulation is a necessity to solve global climate and environmental problems. Here we present a new picture of the circulation by integrating observational results. Lower and Upper Circumpolar Deep Waters (LCDW, UCDW) and Antarctic Intermediate Water (A...
The reconstruction target was the trans-Pacific equatorial ΔSLP, defined as anomalies in the difference between the area-mean SLP over the central-eastern Pacific Ocean (160°–80° W, 5° S–5° N) and the western Pacific/eastern Indian oceans (80°–160° E, 5° S–5°...
A major climate change event that affected atmospheric forcing, ocean circulation and ecosystem structure of the Pacific Ocean began in the mid-1970s. Changes in biomass, and presumably productivity, of the lower trophic levels (phytoplankton and Zooplankton) were directly attributed to this event. ...
Pacific Ocean(Wallace, 1985), and these are associated with changes in global weather patterns (Hansen, 1990). Marine biologists have long documented the effects of ENSO events on numerous marine organisms, includingmarine mammals, seabirds, fishes, corals, invertebrates, algae, and plankton (Barber...

The EOF-2 patterns resemble the contrasting north–south SLP changes in the periods before and after the 1980s (Fig. 1a and b). The first principal component (PC) shows no pronounced trend, which means that the SLP EOF-1, with its large variance, represents interannual variability. In ...
ice, therefore, provides invaluable insights into the causes and expressions of high latitude amplification7,9. Of particular interest is how the pattern of warming behaves on different timescales and how that informs our understanding of future warming patterns with implications for global temperatures...
The influence of chlorophyll spatial patterns and variability on the tropical Pacific climate is investigated by using a fully coupled general circulation model (HadOPA) coupled to a state-of-the-art biogeochemical model (PISCES). The simulated chlorophyll concentrations can feedback onto the ocean by...
