Importance of Resolving Kuroshio Front and Eddy Influence in Simulating the North Pacific Storm Track (2017, background): “…response in sea surface temperature (SST; Frankignoul and Hasselmann 1977; Hasselmann 1976), and the atmosphere in turn experiences reduced surface thermal damping due to the SST adjustment, causing enhancement in low-frequency atmospheric variance (Barsugli and Battisti 1998; Kushnir et al. 2002).”
Storm track response to ocean fronts in a global high-resolution climate model (2014, background): “In addition, according to potential vorticity theory, pre-existing disturbances in the upper level storm track will be amplified when a surface temperature anomaly is present below (Hoskins et al. 1985; Kushnir et al. 2002; Nakamura and Shimpo 2004).”
Pacific Decadal Variability: The Tropical Pacific Mode and the North Pacific Mode* (2003, background): “Conceivably, this response is related to the atmospheric response to midlatitude SSTA—a subject of considerable current debate (e.g., Kushnir et al. 2002), but one that is beyond of the scope of this study.”
Pacific meridional mode and El Niño—Southern Oscillation (2007, background): “, 2001], which in contrast to the tropics is, to a large extent, driven by the internal dynamics of the atmosphere [Saravanan, 1998; Kushnir et al., 2002].”
Observed Associations Among Storm Tracks, Jet Streams and Midlatitude Oceanic Fronts (2013, background): “The one-way nature is consistent with the fact that most of the atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) fail to generate systematic response to prescribed midlatitude SSTAs [Kushnir et al., 2002].”
Northern Winter Stationary Waves: Theory and Modeling (2002, methodology): “We then turn to the response to extratropical heating.”
Climate Fluctuations of Tropical Coupled Systems—The Role of Ocean Dynamics (2006, background): “Others (e.g., Xie and Tanimoto 1998; Chang et al. 2001b; Kushnir et al. 2002) reason that the local feedback is essential in maintaining an organized deep tropical response that consists of a strong cross-equatorial wind and a cross-equatorial SST gradient during the boreal spring.”
Decadal Variability in the Kuroshio–Oyashio Extension Simulated in an Eddy-Resolving OGCM (2006, background): “…necessary for the interaction, however, atmospheric general circulation model studies have still failed to show coherent responses and most of observed data analyzing studies have shown dominance of atmospheric forcing to SSTAs in most of the extratropics (Kushnir et al. 2002, for recent review).”
The ocean's response to North Atlantic Oscillation variability (2013, background): “And although there is still disagreement between the various models and experiments the consensus seems to be a modest feedback from the ocean back to the atmosphere [Kushnir et al. 2002; Czaja et al. this volume].”
Granger Causality of Coupled Climate Processes: Ocean Feedback on the North Atlantic Oscillation (2006, background): “Numerical modeling studies of the response of the atmosphere to various changes in the North Atlantic Ocean remain rather inconsistent (see Kushnir et al. 2002).”
The Forcing of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (2005, background): “4) and the Aleutian low (NPI) and the atmosphere of the eastern North Pacific, and resulting from the oceanic connection by coastal wave propagation off of North America equatorward of 40°N (Chelton and Davis 1982; Clarke and Lebedev 1999; Lluch-Cota et al.
