Changes here have a long term effect, affecting the strength of the north - ward horizontal flow of the Atlantic's upper warm layer, thereby altering the oceanic poleward heat transport and the distribution of sea surface temperature (SST — AMO), the presumed source of the (climate) natural variability.

Therefore, the potential intensity depends mostly on variations of SST (which controls hs *) for climate variations that do not affect the mean temperature of the troposphere.

Oceanic circulation also plays a role — not that the Gulf Stream would ever shut down, but the warm core rings shed into the North Atlantic could become bigger and warmer, affecting regional SSTs, and hence precipitation and soil moisture.

-- «But global warming very definitely DOES affect the temperature of the tropical free troposphere, so it is not possible to conclude, as alas many have, that increasing SST per se means increasing tropical cyclone intensity (though it usually does signify more TC - related rain).»

Satellite measurements of infrared radiances and SSTs indicate that almost 52 percent of the tropical oceans between 20 N and 20 S are affected during all seasons....

The evolution of El Niño - Southern Oscillation (ENSO) variability can be characterized by various ocean - atmosphere feedbacks, for example, the influence of ENSO related sea surface temperature (SST) variability on the low - level wind and surface heat fluxes in the equatorial tropical Pacific, which in turn affects the evolution of the SST.

That is fairly classic stuff but the graph seems to show SST affecting LOD rather than LOD trigger El Nino events.

However, during La Niña Modoki the anomaly of the sea surface temperature (SST) in the eastern Pacific isn't affected by cooling but by warming just like western equatorial Pacific, while a cold anomaly affects the central equatorial Pacific (Niño 3.4).

that's the point, pogac is not just natural variability, sst in the enso regions are affected by radiative forcing too.

For example, the northern East Asian summer monsoon (NEASM) is, for the years of highest SST anomalies in the tropical eastern Pacific (TEP), affected by the Pacific - East Asian (PEA) teleconnection pattern, which consists of a wave creating an anomalously strong western North Pacific (WNP) anticyclonic circulation and anomalously strong cyclonic circulation in the NEASM region, creating more monsoon rainfall.

So the warmer SST's in the 20 - 50's era would have impacted coastal affected stations preferentially over sheltered ones with temperature more directly correlated to SST's.

Importantly, the changes in cereal yield projected for the 2020s and 2080s are driven by GHG - induced climate change and likely do not fully capture interannual precipitation variability which can result in large yield reductions during dry periods, as the IPCC (Christensen et al., 2007) states: ``... there is less confidence in the ability of the AOGCMs (atmosphere - ocean general circulation models) to generate interannual variability in the SSTs (sea surface temperatures) of the type known to affect African rainfall, as evidenced by the fact that very few AOGCMs produce droughts comparable in magnitude to the Sahel droughts of the 1970s and 1980s.»

Since the authors did not pose a hypothesis about «how» the rising SSTs would affect global tropical storm days, they can not reject the idea out of hand as they did.

«The authors write that North Pacific Decadal Variability (NPDV) «is a key component in predictability studies of both regional and global climate change,»... they emphasize that given the links between both the PDO and the NPGO with global climate, the accurate characterization and the degree of predictability of these two modes in coupled climate models is an important «open question in climate dynamics» that needs to be addressed... report that model - derived «temporal and spatial statistics of the North Pacific Ocean modes exhibit significant discrepancies from observations in their twentieth - century climate... conclude that «for implications on future climate change, the coupled climate models show no consensus on projected future changes in frequency of either the first or second leading pattern of North Pacific SST anomalies,» and they say that «the lack of a consensus in changes in either mode also affects confidence in projected changes in the overlying atmospheric circulation.»»

However, it is intimately tied to the WAM circulation, which in turn is affected by sea surface temperatures (SSTs), particularly antisymmetric patterns between the Hemispheres.

Identify the mechanisms by which AMOC variability, imprinted on SST and / or the cryosphere, affects local and remote atmospheric patterns and phenomena.

It is surprising for me that all this fierce fighting here is not really on the trend of the Hurricanes, not even on a potential influence of global warming but just on the question if this influence acts by SSTs or by affecting the vertical wind shear.

I do think that there is a broad consensus that there likely is an effect from increased SST, but that so far it is not sufficiently significant to be visible in the impact record, while lots of other things are, including the well known natural decadal cycles affecting hurricanes, flood defenses and increasing population and property values.

Roger also points out on his site that it is not just SST that are affected by climate change, I read this to mean that land use changes, local changes in climate forcings and so forth may counteract the expected increase from SST locally.

I am harping on this point becuase i see it a central to an informed discussion of the relative ability of internal Atlantic SST variations and global warming to affect hurricane intensity: an internally generated increase in Atlantic SST is likely to be associated with a more unstable atmosphere than the same increase due to global warming.

Since these EWs provide the equatorial Atlantic with cloud formations the size of Europe, varying the EW mass will affect Atlantic SST.
