Summary: | – Both CFSv1 and CFSv2 predicted the negative phase of PDO would last through the Northern Hemisphere winter and spring. – Signatures of La Nina conditions in atmospheric circulation and convection were modulated by strong MJO activities in Oct 2011. Indian Ocean – Easterly wind anomalies have persisted in the east-central tropical Indian Ocean since May 2011, and weak positive IOD conditions emerged with DMI=0.56oC in Aug-Oct 2011. Atlantic Ocean – Positive SSTA and below-normal vertical wind shear in the Atlantic |
