Abstract In recent years, the damages resulting from abnormal hydrometeorological climate have substantially increased over the world due to the climate variability and change. Especially, the flood damage has been severely occurred during the flood season almost every year in Korea. For an example, we had the localized heavy rainfalls for 54 days in flood season of 2020 and had huge property damage and loss of life. Therefore, the study needs to be conducted to improve the predictive power of seasonal time-scale forecasts spanning one to several months for the damage reduction and prevention. In this regard, this study aims to provide a priori predictions (several months ahead) of the climate variable at target sites with a statistical method based on teleconnection with global climatic conditions. Herein, the paradigm of the temperature and precipitation prediction in the Geum river basin in Korea is presented. The purposes of the study are also (1) to analyse the characteristics of summer temperatures and precipitation according to the occurrence of El Niño/La Niña and (2) to suggest a seasonal prediction model that can consider the effects of the occurrence of El Niño and La Niña during the flood season. The model is constructed by classifying the data period into El Niño, La Niña, and neutral status. Then we have shown that the prediction model improves the predictive power for the predictions of climate variables such as temperature and precipitation at midlatitude stations which Korea is located. Therefore, this study demonstrates the possibility of improving the predictive power for forecasting temperature and precipitation by the prediction model considering climate variability.

Climatic conditions influence the culture and economy of societies and the performance of economies. Specifically, El Niño as an extreme climate event is known to have notable effects on health, agriculture, industry, and conflict. Here, we construct directed and weighted climate networks based on near-surface air temperature to investigate the global impacts of El Niño and La Niña. We find that regions that are characterized by higher positive/negative network “in”-weighted links are exhibiting stronger correlations with the El Niño basin and are warmer/cooler during El Niño/La Niña periods. In contrast to non-El Niño periods, these stronger in-weighted activities are found to be concentrated in very localized areas, whereas a large fraction of the globe is not influenced by the events. The regions of localized activity vary from one El Niño (La Niña) event to another; still, some El Niño (La Niña) events are more similar to each other. We quantify this similarity using network community structure. The results and methodology reported here may be used to improve the understanding and prediction of El Niño/La Niña events and also may be applied in the investigation of other climate variables.

Coastal Waters of Lembeh Strait characterizes by small waves and bathymetry undulation. While Sangihe waters have big waves, coastal bays with gently sloping beaches and flawless beaches that are generally steep headlands or cliffs on the shoreline. Differences in these two characters are interesting to watch, especially the value of the Mean Sea Level (MSL). The Least square method is the method of calculating the tidal harmonic constants which are the amplitude and phase lag. Formzahl number calculation is used to determine the type of the tidal in these two waters. The Formzahl numbers of these two waters ranged from 0.26-1.5, so there was no difference in the tidal type. The type of tidal of these two waters was catagorised as Mixed Tide Prevailing Semidiurnal, which is generally in eastern Indonesia waters. Comparison of the fluctuation of Mean Sea Level (MSL) in Lembeh Strait waters in normal climatic conditions, lanina and elnino showed the difference in height. In elnino condition, the MSL value was 87 mm lower (5.9%) than in normal operating condition (1387 mm), and in lanina condition, the average of MSL was higher 51 mm (3.46%) of the normal condition (1525 mm). While in normal climatic conditions, the MSL was 1474 mm© Perairan laut di Selat Lembeh mempunyai karakteristik gelombang kecil dan batimetri berundulasi.  Sedangkan di perairan Sangihe memiliki gelombang besar, pantai teluk berparas pantai landai dan pantai tanjung yang umumnya terjal atau bertebing pada garis pantai. Perbedaan dua karakter ini menjadi hal yang menarik untuk diamati, terutama muka air laut rerata (MLR). Metode least square adalah metode perhitungan pasang surut yang digunakan untuk menghitung konstanta harmonik yaitu amplitude dan kelambatan fase. Dengan perhitungan bilangan Formzahl akan mengetahui tipe pasang surut di kedua perairan tersebut. Diperoleh bilangan Formzahl perairan tersebut berkisar antara 0,26-1,5, sehingga tidak ada perbedaan tipe pasang surutnya. Tipe pasang surut antara kedua perairan ini adalah tipe pasang surut campuran condong ke harian ganda. Pasang surut jenis ini banyak terdapat di perairan Indonesia bagian timur.  Perbandingan fluktuasi muka laut rerata (MLR) di perairan Selat Lembeh pada kondisi iklim normal, El Niño dan La Niña menunjukkan perbedaan ketinggian. Di mana pada kondisi El Niño mempunyai muka laut rerata (MLR) lebih rendah 87 mm (5,9%) dari kondisi normalnya yaitu 1387 mm dan pada kondisi La Niña mempunyai muka laut rerata (MLR) lebih tinggi 51 mm (3,46%) dari kondisi normalnya yaitu 1525 mm. Sedangkan pada kondisi iklim normal muka laut rerata (MLR) adalah 1474 mm©

A neural-network-based cluster technique, the so-called self-organizing map (SOM), was performed to extract distinct sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly patterns during boreal winter. The SOM technique has advantages in nonlinear feature extraction compared to the commonly used empirical orthogonal function analysis and is widely used in meteorology. The eight distinguishable SOM patterns so identified represent three La Niña–like patterns, two near-normal patterns, and three El Niño–like patterns. These patterns show the varied amplitude and location of the SST anomalies associated with El Niño and La Niña, such as the central Pacific (CP) and eastern Pacific (EP) El Niño. The impact of each distinctive SOM pattern on winter-mean surface temperature and precipitation changes over North America was examined. Based on composite maps with observational data, each SOM pattern corresponds to a distinguishable spatial structure of temperature and precipitation anomaly over North America, which seems to result from differing wave train patterns, extending from the tropics to mid–high latitudes induced by longitudinally shifted tropical heating. The corresponding teleconnection as represented by the National Center for Atmospheric Research Community Atmospheric Model, version 4 (CAM4), was compared with the observational results. It was found that the 16-member ensemble average of the CAM4 experiments with prescribed SST can reproduce the observed atmospheric circulation responses to the different SST SOM patterns, which suggests that the circulation differences are largely SST driven rather than due to internal atmospheric variability.

Estudos locais de caraterização e variabilidade climática são fundamentais para geração de informações mais adaptadas às atividades agrícolas desenvolvidas em um município ou região. O objetivo desse trabalho foi caracterizar climaticamente e analisar a influência de eventos El Niño Oscilação Sul (ENOS) na série 1956-2015 de temperatura do ar de Veranópolis, RS. Para caracterização climática foram estabelecidas estatísticas descritivas das temperaturas do ar máximas, mínimas e médias mensais, estacional e anual na série e normal climatológica padrão 1961- 1990. Para identificação de diferenças entre estações e influência de eventos ENOS, os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância e teste de Duncan. Os resultados indicaram que a temperatura média anual é de 17,3ºC, variando entre 12,7ºC (julho) e 21,8ºC (janeiro). O clima é do tipo Cfb, de acordo com a classificação climática de Köppen e TE (temperado) na classificação climática do Estado. Temperaturas mínimas médias mensais inferiores a 10ºC ocorrem de maio a setembro, período de maior variabilidade interanual das temperaturas máximas (desvio padrão entre 1,5º e 1,8ºC), mínimas (1,6-1,8ºC) e médias mensais (1,4-1,7ºC). Anos de La Niña possuem temperaturas médias estacionais inferiores as de El Niño, embora diferenciação em relação a neutros ocorra somente para temperaturas mínimas na primavera e máximas no outono.

Atmospheric teleconnection circulation patterns associated with severe and mild ice cover over the Great Lakes are investigated using the composite analysis of lake ice data and National Center of Environmental Prediction (NCEP) reanalysis data for the period 1963–2011. The teleconnection pattern associated with the severe ice cover is the combination of a negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) or Arctic Oscillation (AO) and negative phase of Pacific/North America (PNA) pattern, while the pattern associated with the mild ice cover is the combination of a positive PNA (or an El Niño) and a positive phase of the NAO/AO. These two extreme ice conditions are associated with the North American ridge–trough variations. The intensified ridge–trough system produces a strong northwest-to-southeast tilted ridge and trough and increases the anomalous northwesterly wind, advecting cold, dry Arctic air to the Great Lakes. The weakened ridge–trough system produces a flattened ridge and trough, and promotes a climatological westerly wind, advecting warm, dry air from western North America to the Great Lakes. Although ice cover for all the individual lakes responds roughly linearly and symmetrically to both phases of the NAO/AO, and roughly nonlinearly and asymmetrically to El Niño and La Niña events, the overall ice cover response to individual NAO/AO or Niño3.4 index is not statistically significant. The combined NAO/AO and Niño3.4 indices can be used to reliably project severe ice cover during the simultaneous –NAO/AO and La Niña events, and mild ice cover during the simultaneous +NAO/AO and El Niño events.
