Pacific SST Variability : Structure and Evolution Bin Guan & Sumant Nigam Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Science University of Maryland, College Park 11 th Annual CCSM Workshop, Breckenridge, CO; June, 2006

Pacific SST Analyses Deser & Blackmon 1995 Zhang et al Mantua et al Nakamura et al Nigam et al Barlow et al Wu et al …And others

Analysis Issues Short records Data pre-filtering, de-trending Regional analysis domain Single season analysis Spatial pattern recurrence is targeted Techniques vary (corr/covar; rot/unrot)

GOAL Obtain a robust characterization of all non-seasonal modes of Pacific SST (ocean-atmosphere) variability from a single analysis of unfiltered data.

Extended EOF Analysis Targets both spatial and temporal recurrence No temporal periodicities are imposed EEOF differs from EOF only in anomaly definition: EOF: ψ(x,y,t o ) EEOF: […,ψ(x,y,t o -Δt), ψ(x,y,t o ), ψ(x,y,t o +Δt),…] Δt was chosen to be a season Temporal recurrence analyzed with a 1-year window (5 staggered data bands) Hadley SSTs analyzed; all-season analysis Analysis domain: Pan Pacific (120E-60W; 20S-60N) EEOFs are rotated

Summary Analysis features - Pan-Pacific analysis domain - all seasons included - unfiltered data - rotated extended EOF - sensitivity tests (domain/period analyzed, number of EEOFs rotated, etc.) ENSO, PDV, trend (and other modes of interest) simultaneously extracted Two modes relevant to PDV: Pan-Pacific, North Pacific

Future Plans Analysis of subsurface data; PDV mechanisms Attribution of 20 th century climate anomalies (e.g., the Dust Bowl drought) to the various low-frequency modes Model intercomparisons: how are the modes and their impacts on climate represented in coupled models?
