| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A global marine surface wind data set is reconstructed for 1900-2015 applying bias corrections. The reconstructed wind data set captures fluctuations of the lower atmospheric circulation associated with major climate variability such as the El Nino/Southern Oscillation, Indian Ocean Dipole, Pacific Decadal Oscillation, and North Atlantic Oscillation, ensuring the performance for researches of climate variability. This wind data set also succeeds at capturing physically consistent patterns of marine surface wind change associated with the Pacific climate shift in the 1920s, which has never been possible to illustrate before.
