NOAA Pan American Climate Studies Objective: To extend the scope and improve the skill of operational seasonal-to-interannual climate prediction over the Americas tao.atmos.washington.edu/pacs

Objectives: better understanding and more realistic simulation of: boundary forcing of seasonal-to-interannual climate variations over the Americas the evolution of tropical sea surface temperature anomalies the seasonally varying mean climate over the Americas and adjacent ocean regions, the structure of the ITCZ/cold tongue complex the relevant land surface processes.

CLIVAR/VAMOS Variability of the American Monsoon Systems International science coordination mechanism Focus on the monsoon systems in order to capitalise on major heat sources that shape the global atmospheric circulation.

VAMOS Major objectives to describe, understand, and model the mean and seasonal aspects of the American monsoon systems, to investigate their predictability and to make predictions to a feasible extent, to prepare products in view of meeting societal needs

VAMOS Focus rainfall and the probability of occurrence of significant weather events such as tropical storms and temperature extremes includes associated perturbations in the planetary, synoptic and mesoscale flow patterns including those in the winter hemisphere. region of interest covers both the tropical and the extratropical Americas and surrounding oceans.
