Climate network and complexity based ENSO forecast for 2026
Josef Ludescher, Jun Meng, Jingfang Fan +2
The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the dominant driver of interannual global climate variability and can lead to extreme weather events such as droughts or flooding. Recent…
Global Patterns of Extreme Temperature Teleconnections Using Climate Network Analysis
Yuhao Feng, Jun Meng, Jingfang Fan
Extreme weather events, rare yet profoundly impactful, are often accompanied by severe conditions. Increasing global temperatures are poised to exacerbate these events, resulting i…
Dynamic Arctic weather variability and connectivity
Jun Meng, Jingfang Fan, Uma S Bhatt +1
The rapidly shrinking Arctic sea ice is changing weather patterns and disrupting the balance of nature. Dynamics of Arctic weather variability (WV) plays a crucial role in weather…
Very early warning of a moderate-to-strong El Niño in 2023
J. Ludescher, J. Meng, J. Fan +2
The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the strongest driver of year-to-year variations of the global climate and can lead to extreme weather conditions and disasters in various…
Emergence of universal scaling in weather extreme events
Qing Yao, Jingfang Fan, Jun Meng +4
The frequency and magnitude of weather extreme events have increased significantly during the past few years in response to anthropogenic climate change. However, global statistica…
Climate network and complexity based El Niño forecast for 2022
Josef Ludescher, Jun Meng, Jingfang Fan
The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the most important driver of interannual global climate variability and can trigger extreme weather events and disasters in various parts…
Network-based Approach and Climate Change Benefits for Forecasting the Amount of Indian Monsoon Rainfall
Jingfang Fan, Jun Meng, Josef Ludescher +5
The Indian summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) has a decisive influence on India's agricultural output and economy. Extreme deviations from the normal seasonal amount of rainfall can ca…
Intra-annual Principal Modes and Evolution Mechanism of the El Nino Southern Oscillation
Yongwen Zhang, Jingfang Fan, Xiaoteng Li +2
The El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is one of the most important phenomena in climate. By studying the fluctuations of surface air temperature within one year between 1979-01-0…
Complexity based approach for El Nino magnitude forecasting before the "spring predictability barrier"
Jun Meng, Jingfang Fan, Josef Ludescher +5
The El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is one of the most prominent interannual climate phenomena. An early and reliable ENSO forecasting remains a crucial goal, due to its seriou…
Significant Impact of Rossby Waves on Air Pollution Detected by Network Analysis
Yongwen Zhang, Jingfang Fan, Xiaosong Chen +2
Air pollution is associated with human diseases and has been found to be related to premature mortality. In response, environmental policies have been adopted in many countries, to…
Correlation and scaling behaviors of concentration in China
Yongwen Zhang, Dean Chen, Jingfang Fan +2
Air pollution has become a major issue and caused widespread environmental and health problems. Aerosols or particulate matters are an important component of the atmosphere and can…
Percolation framework to describe El Niño conditions
Jun Meng, Jingfang Fan, Yosef Ashkenazy +1
Complex networks have been used intensively to investigate the flow and dynamics of many natural systems including the climate system. Here, we develop a percolation based measure,…
Climate network suggests enhanced El Niño global impacts in localized areas
Jingfang Fan, Jun Meng, Yosef Ashkenazy +1
We construct directed and weighted climate networks based on near surface air temperature to investigate the global impacts of El Nino and La Nina. We find that regions which are c…
