Abstract:
Schematic diagram showing the meridional circulation
anomalies associated with the inhomogeneous warming of SST
over the IPWP. Blue arrows represent the climatological mean
HC. Red arrows indicate the anomalous meridional circulation
associated with the variations of SST over the IPWP. The orange
shape between 208Sand208Nindicates the inhomogeneous warming
within the IPWP. The magenta suns indicatemore frequent drought
over these regions.
