EEE 2013: Causes of the Extreme Dry Conditions Over California During Early 2013
Main findings:
The 2013 SST anomalies produced a predilection for California drought, whereas the longterm warming trend appears to make no appreciable contribution because of the counteraction between its dynamical and thermodynamic effects.
