EOF decomposition of SLAs based on altimetry for the period 1993–2022. (a, c, e) Spatial patterns; (b, d, f) Principal components (PC). Time series of the TSA, TNA and TASI climate indices are shown together with modes 1, 2 and 3. R is the correlation coefficient between the PCs and the climate indices. For this EOF analysis the mean long-term trend was removed from all points to show the spatial patterns of the interannual changes.
