ENSO variability and the eastern tropical Pacific: A review
@article{Wang2006ENSOVA, title={ENSO variability and the eastern tropical Pacific: A review}, author={C. Wang and P. Fiedler}, journal={Progress in Oceanography}, year={2006}, volume={69}, pages={239-266} }
El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) encompasses variability in both the eastern and western tropical Pacific. During the warm phase of ENSO, the eastern tropical Pacific is characterized by equatorial positive sea surface temperature (SST) and negative sea level pressure (SLP) anomalies, while the western tropical Pacific is marked by off-equatorial negative SST and positive SLP anomalies. Corresponding to this distribution are equatorial westerly wind anomalies in the central Paci- fic and… CONTINUE READING
