Abstract

ENSO, known as the dominant interannual variation in the climate system, consists of two components: La Nia and El Nio. Earlier research indicates that ENSO is contributed to by red noise, while other studies attribute it to deterministic oceanic dynamical processes. The Bjerknes feedback amplifies the sea surface temperature anomaly, forming a cycle of 2-7 years through delayed negative feedback. ENSO not only significantly impacts the climate of the eastern equatorial Pacific but also influences mid-to-high latitudes by affecting equatorial atmospheric circulation. Additionally, ENSO has important effects on the western Pacific coastal region. For example, sea surface temperature anomalies during ENSO affect East Asian monsoon activity in subsequent years, thereby impacting the Chinese monsoon. Moreover, ENSO influences winter synoptic-scale temperature variability in China by affecting synoptic-scale transient vortices over Siberia. Furthermore, we discuss the similarities and discrepancies in the influence of Central Pacific and Eastern Pacific ENSO events on East Asia.
