| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to clarify a mechanism for the early 20th century Arctic warming. We have performed (1) a statistical analysis with historical ocean-atmosphere observations, (2) numerical experiments with an atmospheric general circulation model, and (3) statistical analysis with CMIP5 pre-industrial control simulations. We found that both the Aleutian low and surface westerly winds over the Northern Eurasia intensify due to simultaneous negative-to-positive shifts of the Pacific and Atlantic multidecadal oscillations. These changes in atmospheric circulation enhance the warm advection over the high latitude regions, leading to the entire warming over the Arctic.
