Abnormal winter weather in Japan during 2012 controlled by large-scale atmospheric and small-scale oceanic phenomena
application/pdf Negative Arctic Oscillation (AO) and Western Pacific (WP) pattern indices persisted from October through December 2012. For the first time both the monthly AO and WP were negative for three consecutive months. Although negative AOs and WPs make Siberia, Eastern Asia, and Japan abnorm...
