Table 1 Global averaged Pearson’s correlations of the yearly number of extreme wave events with the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) Nino3.4 index, Southern Annular Mode (SAM) index, and North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) index in the CYCL simulation, in the NOCYCL simulation, and those only associated to Tropical Cyclones (TCs; CYCL-NOCYCL)
