Modulation of Westerly Wind Bursts by Sea Surface Temperature: A Semistochastic Feedback for ENSO (2007, background): “Although different definitions have been proposed to diagnose WWBs from observations (e.g., Harrison and Vecchi 1997; Yu et al. 2003), it is clear that every significant El Niño of the past 25 years has been accompanied by WWB activity (Kerr 1999; McPhaden 2004).”
Fifty Years of Research on the Madden‐Julian Oscillation: Recent Progress, Challenges, and Perspectives (2020, background): “…by the Sumatra coast as downwelling Rossby waves that propagate to the western Indian Ocean in roughly 70 days (Nagura & McPhaden, 2012), whereas in the Pacific, the downwelling Kelvin wave may initiate (McPhaden, 2004) or maintain (Kapur & Zhang, 2012; Lopez et al., 2013) El Niño conditions.”
Environmental Sensor Networks: A revolution in the earth system science? (2006, background): “An example of this is the Tropical Atmosphere Ocean Project (TAO) which collects real-time data from 70 moored ocean buoys in the Pacific Ocean to study El Nino processes ( McPhaden, 2004 ).”
Madden‐Julian Oscillation (2005, background): “…the genesis of tropical cyclones in the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea [e.g., Liebmann et al., 1994; Nieto Ferreira et al., 1996; Maloney and Hartmann, 2000; Hall et al., 2001; Higgins and Shi, 2001] and affects equatorial surface winds in the Atlantic Ocean [Foltz and McPhaden, 2004].”
Multiscale Convective Organization and the YOTC Virtual Global Field Campaign (2012, background): “…MEtEOROLOgICaL sOCIEtY | et al. 2009), the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO; Madden and Julian 1972), the monsoons (Li 2010), and the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO; McPhaden 2004); and (v) the iconic long-term pattern of persistent convection known as the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ).”
Estimation of the long‐term variability of extreme significant wave height using a time‐dependent Peak Over Threshold (POT) model (2006, background): “…detected trends in the last century in the magnitude of observed visual wave heights as well as important correlations between these wave heights and regional climate indices, such as the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) [Hurrell, 1995] or the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) [McPhaden, 2004].”
Herbivory and plant growth rate determine the success of El Niño Southern Oscillation‐driven tree establishment in semiarid South America (2006, neutral): “The much higher values reached in Chile were produced by a coincident moderate ENSO event in 2002 ( McPhaden, 2004 ).”
A Hierarchy of Data-Based ENSO Models (2005, background): “The ensemble mean of the different forecasts (Kalnay 2003) provides a smoother and more reliable seasonal-to-interannual forecast.”
Changes in the Activity of the Madden–Julian Oscillation during 1958–2004 (2006, background): “Observational studies indicate that before the onset of warm ENSO episodes, as SST anomalies in the central Pacific become sufficiently positive, MJO events tend to propagate farther east into the equatorial Pacific (e.g., Jones et al. 2004c; McPhaden 1999, 2004; Weickmann 1991; Zhang 2005).”
El Niño Modoki and its possible teleconnection (2007, background): “Another interesting direction of research is to examine the potential role of intraseasonal wind bursts (McPhaden 2004) which may trigger these climate modes in a different way under different background conditions by influencing the propagation of the coupled downwelling Kelvin waves [Ashok et…”
Atmosphere‐ocean coupled processes in the Madden‐Julian oscillation (2015, background): “West Pacific MJO-driven wind bursts, especially successive bursts, have been linked to El Niño onset [Zhang and Gottschalck, 2002; McPhaden, 2004].”
