英文摘要: | Daily observations from 1971 to 2010 reveal that every El Niño during this period was accompanied by congregated westerly wind bursts, suggesting a close relationship of these bursts with both "cold tongue" and "warm pool" El Niño events. With the addition of burst-like multiplicative noise to an intermediate ocean-atmosphere coupled model, it is shown that westerly wind bursts, by generating eastward equatorial surface currents and downwelling Kelvin waves, could be responsible for the existence of the warm pool El Niño and for the irregularity and extremes of the cold tongue El Niño. Whether these bursts give rise to one type of El Nino or the other depends on the timing of their occurrence relative to the phase of the recharge-discharge cycle of the equatorial upper ocean heat content. © 2014.
