Propagating Annular Modes: Empirical Orthogonal Functions, Principal Oscillation Patterns, and Time Scales
The two leading empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs) of zonal-mean zonal wind describe north-south fluctuations, and intensification and narrowing, respectively, of the midlatitude jet. Under certain circumstances, these two leading EOFs cannot be regarded as independent but are in fact manifestati...
