ABSTRACT NPO / WP is a prominent mode of winter midlatitude variability consitituted by both the NPO and WP teleconnection pattern. NPO / WP is a prominent mode of winter midlatitude variability consitituted by both the NPO and WP teleconnection pattern. NPO / WP variability, on subseasonal time scales, is characterized by a large-scale meridional dipole in SLP and geopotential height.

The westward tilt is slight over the North Pacific with the surface pressure anomaly. The westward tilt is slight over the North Pacific with the surface pressure anomaly. The NPO/WP pattern bears some resemblance to the component of climatological stationary waves. The NPO/WP pattern bears some resemblance to the component of climatological stationary waves. The temperature field is hydrostatically consistent with the height distribution. The temperature field is hydrostatically consistent with the height distribution.
