| These circulation centers are situated to the northwest and southwest of a prominent precipitation anomaly situated near 120°-150°E at the equator, which corresponds to the western portion of a dipolar heating pattern resulting from east-west displacements of the ascending branch of the Walker Circulation during ENSO. |
| Basic diagnostics will first be performed to insure the fidelity of the new integrations, and then analysis of the output will begin in order to study the relevant climate problems involving remote response to tropical forcing and local air sea interactions in the extratropics. |
| In collaboration with the CDC staff, development of the next version of the webtool will be launched with the goal of achieving faster access to the desired data fields and greater ease in selecting various data domain and graphics options. |
