The Relationship

AbstractA significant negative relationship is found between the summer mean North Indian Ocean sea surface temperature (SST) and East Asian surface temperature anomalies. However, the relationship is distinctively different for each month and shows a time-lagged relation rather than a simultaneous one. The North Indian Ocean warming in June is responsible for significant cold anomalies over the Korea-Japan region that peak in July, exhibiting a 1-month leading role. The SST increase is closely associated with enhanced convective activity in the region in June, but the relationship between SST and resultant precipitation is substantially weakened afterward. This dependency of the precipitation sensitivity to SST anomaly is related to the climatological evolution of SST. The relatively low background SST due to the strengthening of southwesterly monsoons in the late summer can weaken the sensitivity of the precipitation to SST anomaly, yet the background SST in June is strong enough to maintain an increased sensitivity of precipitation. Thus, the Indian Ocean warming in June effectively drives atmospheric Kelvin waves that propagate into the equatorial western Pacific. In the western North Pacific (WNP), the resultant Kelvin wave-induced Ekman divergence triggers suppressed convection and anticyclonic anomalies. The WNP suppressed convection and anticyclonic anomalies move slowly northeastward until they are located near 20°N through the local air-sea interaction, and act as a source of the Pacific-Japan teleconnection. This teleconnection pathway brings clod surface anomalies to the Korea-Japan region due to the cyclonic circulation that causes the radiative and horizontal advection.

This chapter considers processes we cannot reverse, at least in the short term: it is already too late. These are processes related to slow responses or feedbacks in the climate system, including ocean warming and sea-level rise, and they will continue to drive change whatever we do. As explained in the chapter, ocean warming operates on timescales of centuries and resulting changes in Earth’s major ice sheets take many centuries to millennia. Sea-level rise is caused by thermal expansion due to ocean warming and by reduction in the volume of land-based ice, due to global warming. Because of the timescales involved, the oceans will keep warming for centuries, dragging global mean temperature along with them, and sea level will also rise for many centuries to come. The chapter reviews the impacts of these processes, whose inevitability means that humanity has no choice but to adapt to them.

Ocean warming and acidification are recognized as two major anthropogenic perturbations of today's oceans. This has resulted in a number of serious problems including acidification, coral bleaching, and sea level rise. An enormous amount of scientific effort is currently being applied to understanding, monitoring, and testing solutions to these problems such as seeding the oceans with minerals to encourage plankton growth and thereby sequester carbon. The story in this chapter, “The Fid,” is about using art and games to engage people in facing major problems by educating them and building up their determination to address the ocean's problems. It is the first story in a new series, “Iron Seas.”
