Figure 1 from Lele et al. (2026). Multi-Model Mean of track density change in the North Atlantic, calculated between future and historical periods for SSP1-2.6 (a) and SSP5-8.5 (b). Stippling shows regions with statistically significant differences at p=0.05 based on a two-sided Student's t-test from the 12-model, 10-track ensemble and 40-intensity ensemble. This blog post...

Reproduced from Figures 3 & 6 in Badezet-Delory (2026). (a) Regression of preceding September-November (SON) SST anomalies (°C), with tropical forcing removed, onto the ENSO-independent JFM California precipitation. (b) Comparison of the standardized timeseries of the ENSO-removed JFM California precipitation (black line) and the high-pass-filtered SON KOE precursor index (red line; cut off of 40...

This infographic was generated by Google Notebook. This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by Google Notebook, are based on a preprint article “North Atlantic SST Drives Sub-seasonal Variability and Predictability of the Large-Scale Circulation” by Murphy et al. (2026). A preprint article by Murphy et al. (2026) investigates the causal relationship between North... Continue Reading →
Derived from Figure 2 in Xie et al. (2026). Observed and simulated 1982–2024 trends in equatorial ocean temperature. Linear trend of equatorial (2.5°S to 2.5°N mean) ocean temperature trends (°C/decade) in (A) OISST, (C) a CESM2-HIST member run with the strongest La Nina-like trend, and (D) the CESM2-HIST ensemble mean. Stippling indicates 90% confidence. The... Continue Reading →
Figure 3 from Mellado-Cano et al. (2019). Winter composites of: (a)–(d) near-surface temperature (shading, in °C) and geopotential height at 500 hPa (contours, in dam) anomalies; (e)–(h) precipitation (shading, in percentage of normals) and SLP (contours, hPa) anomalies for different combinations of NAODI and EADI indices with absolute values larger than 0.5 standard deviations: (a) NAODI+/EADI+, (b)...

This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “North Pacific model biases influence Kuroshio Extension atmospheric circulation patterns” by Song et al. (2026). A new research by Song et al. (2026) explores how sea surface temperature (SST) biases in climate models disrupt the predicted atmospheric circulation patterns caused by the Kuroshio Extension (KE). By... Continue Reading →
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Rainfall sustains multiyear La Niña” by Tian et al. (2026). This research investigates how rainfall-induced salinity changes act as a critical feedback loop to sustain multiyear La Niña events. While early stages of these cooling events are driven by ocean dynamics like advection, the study reveals... Continue Reading →
This blog post, created by NotebookLM, is based on “On the Atlantic extratropical-tropical teleconnection in response to external freshwater forcing” by Joshi an Zhang (2026). This research study utilizes a coupled climate model to investigate how a massive influx of freshwater in the North Atlantic triggers a chain reaction that shifts the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) southward. The authors demonstrate that... Continue Reading →
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Impacts of AMOC Collapse on Monsoon Rainfall: A Multi‐Model Comparison” by Ben-Yami et al. (2024). Summary: Ben-Yami et al. (2024) analyzes how a potential collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) would drastically alter tropical monsoon rainfall patterns worldwide. By...
