AbstractThe Year-to-year variability of the western Pacific subtropical high (WPSH) is primarily controlled by atmosphere–ocean interaction (AOI) between the WPSH and the Indo-Pacific warm pool dipole...
View ArticleInfluence of Low-frequency Solar Forcing on the East Asian Winter Monsoon...
AbstractIn this study, we investigate the influence of low-frequency solar forcing on the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) by analyzing a four-member ensemble of 600-year simulations performed with...

AbstractThis study reveals an enhanced correlation between the interannual variability of summer precipitation over the Three-River-Source (TRS) region of China and North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO),...
View ArticleImpact of Global Oceanic Warming on Winter Eurasian Climate
AbstractIn the 20th century, Eurasian warming was observed and was closely related to global oceanic warming (the first leading rotated empirical orthogonal function of annual mean sea surface...
View ArticleModulation of ENSO evolution by strong tropical volcanic eruptions
AbstractThe simulated responses of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) to volcanic forcings are controversial, and some mechanisms of these responses are not clear. We investigate the impacts of...
View ArticleNumerical simulation on the southern flood and northern drought in summer...
AbstractIn summer 2014, Eastern China suffered a typical “southern flood and northern drought” anomalous climate. Observational analyses indicated that the anomalous vertical motion, East Asian...
View ArticleVariation in Principal Modes of Midsummer Precipitation over Northeast China...
AbstractThis study documents the first two principal modes of interannual variability of midsummer precipitation over Northeast China (NEC) and their associated atmospheric circulation anomalies. It is...
View ArticleEnhanced influence of early-spring tropical Indian Ocean SST on the following...
AbstractThe relationship between the tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) and East Asian summer monsoon/precipitation has been documented in many studies. However, the precursor signals of summer precipitation...
View ArticleFrequency of spring dust weather in North China linked to sea ice variability...
AbstractThe link between winter sea ice cover in the Barents Sea (SICBS) and the frequency of spring dust weather over North China (DWFNC) is investigated. It is found that year-to-year variability of...
View ArticleImpacts of the Autumn Arctic Sea Ice on the Intraseasonal Reversal of the...
AbstractDuring 1979–2015, the intensity of the Siberian high (SH) in November and December–January (DJ) is frequently shown to have an out-of-phase relationship, which is accompanied by opposite...
View ArticleVerification and Improvement of the Ability of CFSv2 to Predict the Antarctic...
AbstractThe boreal spring Antarctic Oscillation (AAO) has a significant impact on the spring and summer climate in China. This study evaluates the capability of the NCEP’s Climate Forecast System,...
View ArticleProjection of Landslides in China during the 21st Century under the RCP8.5...
AbstractMore and more rainstorms and other extreme weather events occur in the context of global warming, which may increase the risks of landslides. In this paper, changes of landslides in the 21st...
View ArticleUnstable relationship between the Arctic Oscillation and East Asian jet...
AbstractBased on long-term reanalysis datasets, this study revealed that the relationship between the Arctic Oscillation (AO) and the East Asian jet stream (EAJS) is significant negative during...
View ArticleRelationship between neuroticism and sleep quality among asthma patients: the...
AbstractObjectiveThe aims of this study were to investigate the prevalence of sleep disturbance; to validate the associations between neuroticism, mindfulness, and sleep quality; and to further examine...
View ArticleRelationship between the onset date of the Meiyu and the South Asian...
AbstractThe onset date of the Meiyu has attracted extensive attention because it marks the beginning of the rainfall season in the Yangtze-Huai River basin (YHRB). In this study, the relationship...
View ArticleRecent intensified impact of December Arctic Oscillation on subsequent...
AbstractThis study reveals an intensified influence of December Arctic Oscillation (AO) on the subsequent January surface air temperature (SAT) over Eurasia and North Africa in recent decades. The...
View ArticleStrengthened linkage between midlatitudes and Arctic in boreal winter
AbstractEarly studies have suggested a linkage between the surface warming over the Barents-Kara Seas and the strength of the Siberian high in boreal winter. Here, we show that the linkage is not...
