概要 The role of extratropical atmosphere-ocean coupling in generating and maintaining large-scale atmospheric low-frequency variability remains an open question owing to vigorous atmospheric internal fluc...tuations. Here, we use coupled and uncoupled large-ensemble global model simulations to clarify how the coupling intensifies atmospheric teleconnection patterns in the Northern Hemisphere winter.Weshowthat the extratropical coupling selectively enhances the variance of three principal modes of variability, explaining 13%, 11%, and 10% of the total variance of Pacific/North American, North Atlantic Oscillation, and Warm-Arctic Cold-Eurasian patterns, respectively. Atmosphere-ocean coupling reduces damping to lower-tropospheric available potential energy, which in turn increases kinetic energy by changing energy transfer within the mode. The extratropical ocean is overall passive (adjustable) to large-scale atmospheric variation, thus contributing to the prominence of these modes. The geographical dependence of available potential energy damping suggests the existence of mode-specific sweet spots where the influence of coupling operates efficiently, providing a clue to improving the model biases in variance and signal-to-noise ratio of these modes.続きを見る
