Projecting the Risk of Future Climate Regime Shifts

Accomplishments

As of mid-2005, initial statistical work by Enfield and Cid has now been completed and submitted for publication [20]. and can be viewed here in its entirety. The statistical methods have been tested and applied for the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) and the resulting projections of future climate shifts demonstrated. The methods developed are not limited to the AMO, however, and may be applied to any D2M climate mode for which there are sufficient data available.
