“…Very significant negative anomalies cover the entire tropics. A north‐south dipole structure of the geopotential height anomalies over the central tropical Pacific is a typical signature of the upper tropospheric response to ENSO [e.g., Kumar et al , 1996; Kawamura et al , 1997; Lau and Nath , 2000]. In a similar fashion, Figure 6b shows the composite differences in OLR and the 200‐hPa velocity potential.…”

“…Also, unlike in the Pacific, the Atlantic equatorial cold tongue is centered south of the equator and how equatorial waves influence this region may be different. Other possible mechanisms include, the western Pacific oscillator [Weisberg and Wang, 1997], advective-reflective oscillator [Picaut et al, 1997;Wang, 2001], or a destabilized basin mode [Jin and Neelin, 1993;.The western Pacific oscillator, however, is probably not active in the Atlantic, as no negative SST or westward wind stress anomalies exist in the western Atlantic during the zonal mode's peak phase (Figure 1b). Zonal current variations are important in both the advective-reflective oscillator and destabilized basin-mode mechanisms.…”
