A measure of the difference in sea level pressure between the western (e.g., Darwin, Australia) and central / eastern (e.g., Tahiti)
equatorial Pacific, representative of the
east - west changes in atmospheric circulation associated with the El Nino / Southern Oscillation phenomenon.
Paleo - proxy reconstructions indicate that a lower insolation due to volcanic aerosols (or else) leads to a lower
east - west SST gradient / a higher eastern
equatorial SST / a higher El Nino variability?
The team measured trace elements and stable isotopes in stalagmites from the Indonesian island of Flores and used them to reconstruct ancient rainfall, comparing them to records from
East Asia and the central - eastern
equatorial Pacific.
Location of the stations used for the Southern Oscillation Index (Tahiti and Darwin, black dots), the

equatorial Pacific and Indonesia regions, outlined in blue), and the Niño3.4 region in the
east - central tropical Pacific Ocean for sea surface temperature (red dashed line).
Along the
east coast, the warm Agulhas Current brings nutrient - poor, tropical waters southward from the
equatorial Indian Ocean.
Only looking at the Niño 3.4 index hides the fact that this event is more typical of La Niña Modoki, where cool SST anomalies in the central
equatorial Pacific are flanked by warm anomalies to the
east and west.
Equatorial Kelvin waves propagate to the
east in the Northern and Southern hemispheres, using the equator as a guide.
The
East Australian Current (EAC) is the southward western boundary current that is formed from the South
Equatorial Current (SEC) crossing the Coral Sea and reaching the eastern coast of Australia.
The raging El Niño Southern Oscillation, a band of warm ocean water in the central and
east - central
equatorial Pacific, is about to cause droughts in southern Asia — and to bring enough rain to boost California almond production after years of drought - induced decline.
X Anomaly says: «And for those interested, the -2 sub surface temperature anomalies in the
east central
equatorial pacific have expanded and risen towards the surface by around 60 meters in the last month.»
And for those interested, the -2 sub surface temperature anomalies in the
east central
equatorial pacific have expanded and risen towards the surface by around 60 meters in the last month.
Maybe an
East - West temperature oscillation is a natural feature of any body of water with enough
East - West
equatorial size for it, and it just happens that under the current continental configuration only the Pacific is large enough.
The average annual SST difference between the
east and west
equatorial Pacific is about 4.5 deg C. Refer to the graph I prepared for an upcoming post.

East equatorial Africa, western South America and Southeastern South America tend to see flooding, McPhaden tells Carbon Brief.
When enough warm water has piled up gravity flow begins
east along that
equatorial counter-current.
They include alternating «pulses» of warm and cool waters that travel across the
equatorial Pacific (from west to
east) called Kelvin waves.
In the North Atlantic and the North Pacific heat transport is regulated by conflict of warm and cold currents: North Atlantic Drift and
East Greenland Currents (NA) as drivers of the AMO, Kuroshio and Oyashio Currents (NP) driving the PDO, while in Central Pacific the South
Equatorial Current is the key oscillator, the source of the ENSO.
The Pacific regimes are caused by changes in upwelling in the north -
east and
equatorial Pacific over 20 to 30 year regimes.
Tropical winds blow from
east to west and in the North Atlantic create the flow labeled «North
Equatorial».
Higher SSH in the west, manifested as a deeper thermocline and subsurface warming, contributed to an intensified west -
east pressure gradient that drives the
equatorial undercurrent (EUC).
In the
Equatorial Pacific, we normally have equatorial upwelling in the east and downwelling in the west, aka the Western Pacific
Equatorial Pacific, we normally have
equatorial upwelling in the east and downwelling in the west, aka the Western Pacific
equatorial upwelling in the
east and downwelling in the west, aka the Western Pacific Warm Pool.
It is driven by changes
equatorial trade winds, which are normally weakest in the spring and change direction when warmer SSTs starts moving
east.
However, a contradictory theory postulates sustained La Niña conditions due to stronger warming of the West
Equatorial Pacific than the
East, causing enhanced easterly winds and reinforcing the up - welling of cold water in the EEP (56).
La Niña is the periodic cooling of ocean waters in the
east - central
equatorial Pacific, which can impact the typical alignment of weather patterns around the globe.
It also brought drought to
east Africa, the central
equatorial Pacific area and the American south, as well as flooding in southern Africa, Asia and eastern Australia.
