Title: Regional Climate Predictability in the Extratropics

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:787690

The goal of this project was to develop a dynamical framework for extratropical climate predictability on decade-to-century timescales and subcontinental spatial scales,besed on the intraseasonal dynamics of the midlatitude atmosphere and their interaction with the ocean's longer timescales.A two-pronged approach was taken,based on (a)idealized,quasi-geostrophic,coupled models of the midlatitude ocean-atmosphere system,and(b)analysis of GCM results.
