ENSO Influence on Atlantic hurricanes via tropospheric warming. Geophys
[1] A new pathway for the negative impact of ENSO on tropical North Atlantic (NAtl) storm activity is examined empirically. Anomalous tropospheric temperatures communicated from the Pacific by wave dynamics are hypothesized to impact storm development by affecting column stability relative to equili...
