a Regression coefficients of ω500 (10-3 Pa/s) anomalies onto WTI. b Regression coefficients of 200hPa RWS (s-2) and WAF (vectors, m2/s2) anomalies onto WTI. c,e Regression of Z200 anomalies onto SEP and TCP indices (multiplied by -1 for visual consistency with SEP/TCP model runs). d,f Z200 responses in the Forced SEP Run/ TCP Run. Wave train centers A-D (corresponding to those identified in Fig. 1b) are labeled. GOA region shown by magenta box (c–f). Green boxes mark SEP region in (a–d), and TCP region in (a,b,e,f). Pattern correlations between panels and Fig. 1b within gray boxes are labeled in (c–f). Gray dots indicate significance at the 95% confidence level.
