Fig. 6: Intermodel relationship of the MWAF versus winds and of precipitation versus winds for selected NPO events.
From: Part II model support on a new mechanism for North Pacific Oscillation influence on ENSO
a Scatter diagram between MWAF for NPO events and corresponding 300-hPa zonal wind anomalies D0JFM1-averaged over 130°E–170°E, 5°S–5°N. b The same as (a) but for the 850-hPa westerly wind anomalies averaged over 120°E–160°E, 5°S–5°N. c Same as (a) but for the precipitation averaged over 120°E–160°E, 5°S–5°N, and 300-hPa zonal wind anomalies. d Same as (a) but for the precipitation and 850-hPa wind anomalies. The red dots show the observations while the blue dots represent the CMIP5/6 models. Linear regression lines are shown with their 90% confidence intervals (shaded) using the bootstrap method.
