The role of the Indian Ocean Dipole in modulating the austral spring ENSO teleconnection to the Southern Hemisphere

<p>The combined influence of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) on the extratropical circulation in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) during austral spring is examined. Reanalyses and the large ensemble of National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) C...

description <p>The combined influence of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) on the extratropical circulation in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) during austral spring is examined. Reanalyses and the large ensemble of National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System version 2 (CFSv2) model outputs were used to compute composites and linear regressions for relevant variables. The results show that a positive IOD can reinforce the El Niño-induced circulation by merging the Indian Ocean wave train with the Pacific South American (PSA) pattern over the Pacific Ocean. In addition, the results obtained with the CFSv2 model output shows that strong positive IODs can contribute to enhancing the circulation signal of the El Niño anomalies and the Indian Ocean wave train. On the other hand, negative IODs in combination with La Niña do not have that combined circulation response. While there is a moderate intensification of the circulation anomalies associated with La Niña, accompanied by some changes in the location of their main action centers, results vary considerably between linear regression, the observed composites, and model composites. Regarding the influence of the IOD activity (independent of ENSO), reanalysis-based results show that the IOD positive phase has a significant impact over the entire SH, while the negative phase is associated with weaker anomalies and less consistent atmospheric response.</p>
