Differences in the climatology of spring a SLP and b 850-hPa zonal wind between periods 1996–2018 and 1949–1995. Stippling regions in a, b indicate the differences that are significantly different from zero at the 95% confidence level. Scatter plots of the Mar(0) ALI-related 850-hPa zonal wind anomalies in AM(0) averaged over the TWCP against the climatology of spring c SLP and d 850-hPa zonal wind over the subtropical northeastern Pacific for the 23-year running period. Red lines indicate the best linear fit. Blue lines indicate the 95% confidence range of the linear regression.
