Bimodality of hemispheric winter atmospheric variability via average flow tendencies and kernel EOFs

The topic of the existence of planetary winter circulation regimes has gone through a long debate. This article contributes to this debate by investigating nonlinearity in a 3-level quasi-geostrophic model and the Japanese JRA-55 reanalysis. The method uses averaged flow tendencies and kernel princi...
