CP El Niño and PDO Variability Affect Summer Precipitation over East China

Figure 10

Composite OLR anomalies averaged over the western Pacific (110°–140°E) in the CP El Niño decaying months for (a) climatology (averaged for the period of 1950–2017), (b) cool PDO in developing summers, (c) warm PDO in developing summers, (d) cool PDO in decaying summers, and (e) warm PDO in decaying summers. Red dots indicate 95% and higher confidence levels using t-test for OLR anomalies.
