| Zusammenfassung |
| The sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the South China Sea (SCS) and
their influences on global atmospheric circulation were studied. The results
of a simple atmospheric model suggested that the SCS SST anomalies can
induce several barotropic wave trains from the SCS to other regions such as
North America, high latitudes of the Southern Hemisphere and the
Mediterranean. The baroclinic stream function anomalies from the simple
model showed an anticyclonic vortex pair in the Asian continent and the northern and southern Indian Ocean and a cyclonic vortex in the North Pacific and the
southwestern Pacific. It is suggested that the spatial pattern of SST anomalies
in the SCS can affect the magnitude of stream function anomalies, although
it cannot affect the spatial pattern of atmospheric circulation. |
