The out‐of‐phase variation of surface air temperature anomalies over northern Central Asia between January and February: The role of intraseasonal variations in tropical convection
Abstract The out‐of‐phase mode of winter surface air temperature anomalies (SATAs) over northern Central Asia (NCA; 45°–65°N, 40°–100°E) between January and February is investigated in this study. This mode corresponds to warm (cold) SATAs in January (February) over NCA and is mainly modulated by th...

This mode corresponds to warm (cold) SATAs in January (February) over NCA and is mainly modulated by the enhanced tropical convection anomalies over the Maritime Continent in previous late December, associated with MJO phase 4. These tropical convection anomalies can induce anomalous tropospheric Rossby‐wave sources over the North Pacific in late December. The eastward‐propagating Rossby‐wave train, triggered by these anomalous Rossby‐wave sources, can cause negative and positive tropospheric geopotential height anomalies over the Greenland–Scandinavia region and NCA in the following early–mid‐January, subsequently leading to warm SATAs over NCA in January. The negative geopotential height anomalies over the Greenland–Scandinavia region in early–mid‐January can trigger upward‐propagating wave activity fluxes (WAFs) into the stratosphere, resulting in negative stratospheric geopotential height anomalies in late January–early February. These stratospheric anomalies, by triggering downward‐propagating WAFs, can in turn lead to positive tropospheric geopotential height anomalies over the Greenland–Scandinavia region in early February. These anomalies over the Greenland–Scandinavia region can maintain themselves in the following mid‐ and late February by feedback of anomalous storm tracks, and cause negative geopotential height anomalies and subsequently cold SATAs over NCA in February by triggered southeastward‐propagating Rossby‐wave train.
