Every year man-made and natural disasters impact the lives of millions of people. The
frequency of occurrence of such disasters is steadily increasing since the last 50 years, and …

ENSO induces coherent climate anomalies over the Indo-western Pacific, but these
anomalies outlast SST anomalies of the equatorial Pacific by a season, with major effects on …

We evaluate and compare the simulation of summer precipitation in China and the East
Asian summer monsoon (EASM) by eight climate models from Phase 6 of the Coupled …

Robust projections and predictions of climate variability and change, particularly at regional
scales, rely on the driving processes being represented with fidelity in model simulations …

A changing climate can lead to changes in the frequency, intensity or duration of an extreme
event, or result in an 3 unprecedented, previously unobserved, extreme. As well, a weather …

Abstract The western North Pacific anomalous anticyclone (WNPAC) is an important
atmospheric circulation system that conveys El Niño impact on East Asian climate. In this …

There is a growing need for skilful predictions of climate up to a decade ahead. Decadal
climate predictions show high skill for surface temperature, but confidence in forecasts of …

Significant climate anomalies persist through the summer (June–August) after El Niño
dissipates in spring over the equatorial Pacific. They include the tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) …

East Asia is greatly impacted by drought. North and southwest China are the regions with
the highest drought frequency and maximum duration. At the interannual time scale, drought …

The record‐long 2020 Meiyu season since 1961 caused severe floods over the Yangtze and
Huaihe River valleys (YHRV). Why the Meiyu duration doubled in 2020 remains a puzzle …
