Origin of the 2009 extra-tropical anomalies? Similarity of N.Hem wavetrain pattern in summer 2007/8/9 Is the observed pattern likely to recur? Is it related to a particular forcing? If so, what timescale? Hypotheses & evidence 1) Tropics – (a) ENSO; (b) Asian Monsoon 2) AMO – decadal variability of Atlantic SSTs (Sutton & Hodson, Knight et al) 3) Arctic sea-ice loss (Balmaseda et al, 2009) Idealised experiments for 2007 (Hoskins, Fonseca, Blackburn) Direct Rossby wave response to tropical heating Diagnosis of anomalous forcing – importance of eddy feedback Comparison with ECMWF relaxed seasonal hindcasts

1b) Tropics: Asian Summer Monsoon Observational evidence of circum-global wavetrain associated with Asian/Indian monsoon (Ding & Wang, 2005) Idealised modelling, including transient eddy feedbacks (Lin, 2009) Observed Z200 composite differences

1b) Tropics: Asian Summer Monsoon Observed correlation between 200hPa streamfunction and Arabian Sea precipitation (PI1) Lin (2009) Model heating and Z 200hPa response

Origin of the 2007/8/9 anomalies? Remains an open question: Possibility of quasi-resonance, triggered by a number of forcings Hypotheses & evidence: 1) Tropics – (a) ENSO; (b) Asian Monsoon 2) AMO – decadal variability of Atlantic SSTs 3) Arctic sea-ice loss Idealised experiments for 2007: Direct Rossby wave response to tropical heating Diagnosis of anomalous forcing – eddy feedback? Comparison with ECMWF relaxed seasonal hindcasts
