ENSO affects weather all over the world but doesn’t track the global mean surface temperature (GMST), at least for the last 35 years. Is GMST an appropriate measure of climate…

Climate Oscillations 10: Aleutian Low – Beaufort Sea Anticyclone (ALBSA)

The Aleutian Low – Beaufort Sea Anticyclone climate index or ALBSA is designed to predict snow and ice melting times on the North Slope of Alaska.

Climate Oscillations 9: Arctic & North Atlantic Oscillations

The AO and NAO are the dominant modes of climate variability in the Northern Hemisphere and neither of them can be reproduced using climate model output.

Climate Oscillations 8: The NPI and PDO

The NPI and PDO are closely related and do not correlate well with global warming.

Climate Oscillations 7: The Pacific Mean SST

This is a comparison of Pacific SST to HadCRUT5, how we4ll do they compare?

Climate Oscillations 6: Atlantic Meridional Mode (AMM)

By Andy May The Atlantic Meridional Mode Index (AMM) describes meridional variability in the tropical Atlantic. The area of interest is the ocean area inside 32°N to 21°S and from…

Climate Oscillations 5: SAM

The Southern Annular Mode (SAM) has a major influence on global climate.

Climate Oscillations 4: The Length of Day (LOD)

The Length of Day correlates with meridional circulation and global warming and cooling.

Climate Oscillations 3: Northern Hemisphere Sea Ice Area

Can we model Northern Hemispheric sea ice or the Northern climate oscillations? Not likely.

Climate Oscillations 2: The Western Hemisphere Warm Pool (WHWP)

By Andy May As seen in the first post of this series the AMO (Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation) and the WHWP (Western Hemisphere Warm Pool) area are the two climate oscillations…
