Fig. 2: Composite of TC genesis during Atlantic Niño/Niña and El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) years.
From: Atlantic Niño increases early-season tropical cyclone landfall risk in Korea and Japan
Spatial patterns of anomalous JJA TC genesis (per year) composites during (a) Atlantic Niño and (b) Atlantic Niña. c Number of JJA TCs over the northern WNP (100°E–160°W, 22.5°N-40°N) during Atlantic Niño (red bar), neutral (gray bar) and Atlantic Niña (blue bar) years. The error bars indicate the 95% confidence level based on a two-tailed Student’s t test. d–f Are the same as (a–c) but for ENSO years. Note that TC genesis is spatially smoothed to aid visual comparison. Purple dots indicate significance above the 90% confidence level based on a Student’s t test.
