Footprinting: A seasonal connection between the tropics and mid‐latitudes
Abstract
A connection between the mid‐latitude and tropical Pacific is identified in a coupled general circulation model (CGCM). The connection involves a seasonal coupling between winter mid‐latitude atmospheric circulation anomalies, and summer equatorial wind stress anomalies. The seasonal coupling results from a “footprinting” mechanism, in which the summer tropical atmosphere responds to subtropical sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies that are generated by the mid‐latitude atmospheric variability during the previous winter. Details of the connection, and of the footprinting mechanism are presented. Implications for interannual ENSO and decadal ENSO‐like variability are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
