Abstract

Based on monthly mean sea level pressure and 500 hPa height data for a 20–year period simulated by IAP 2L AGCM, teleconnection patterns in the Northern Hemisphere appearing in the model are identified and compared with observations. The results show that almost all of the observed teleconnection patterns in the Northern winter can be reproduced by the model, thus these patterns exist in the atmosphere without any external anomalies. On the other hand, the simulated teleconnection patterns are more dependent on each other than the observed, i.e., they are lack of spatial orthogonality among them, therefore, it is possible that more complex patterns will appear under the action of anomalous external factors. Besides, the simulated teleconnection patterns in summer are greatly different from those in winter, in particular, its scale in summer is much less than that in winter.
