The results show that, on the interannual time scale, the northwest–southeast displacement of the EASWJ and the intensity of the EASM maintain a stable anti-phase relationship across all three periods: a northward shift of the jet corresponds to a stronger monsoon, and vice versa. However, the study identified a significant “mode shift” in the second MV-EOF mode: during the MCA and LIA, the dominant feature is an out-of-phase (in-phase) relationship between EASWJ and EASM intensities in the midlatitudes (subtropics), whereas during the PWP it is characterized by a zonal displacement of the EASWJ, with an eastward (westward) shift associated with a stronger (weaker) EASM.

New review challenges conventional wisdom, revealing land-atmosphere interactions play a crucial role even in wet monsoon climates.

Insights from past cold and warm periods: Larger interannual temperature variability over China

A new study offer new insights into the complex behavior of Arctic weather extremes and provide a scientific basis for improving predictions of their occurrence and impacts—especially critical as Greenland's ice loss continues to accelerate.

New research reveals a cross-seasonal pathway linking tropical sea surface temperatures to the Antarctic polar vortex, with implications for long-range climate prediction.

On this World Meteorological Day, let's meet Shanghuang Observatory (ABLES) — a state-of-the-art research platform in Southeast China. What makes it special? Why does it matter to us?

ABLES was established in 2023 by the Institute of Atmospheric Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Perched atop Damaojian Peak (1,128 meters) in Shanghuang village, Wuyi county, Zhejiang province, this station aims to become a key hub for global scientific partnership.

ABLES prioritizes research in three key areas:

(a) Cross-sphere transport of pollutants and their climatic and environmental impacts.

(b) Physical and chemical interactions between clouds and aerosols under extreme weather conditions.

(c) Multi-scale feedback mechanisms between climate change and ecosystems.
