报告摘要：The ocean is believed to sustain the low frequency climate change through its huge heat content or the “ocean memory”, which is usually saved in the subsurface ocean water mass such as the North Pacific Subtropical Mode Water (STMW). Traditionally, the decadal variability of the mode water has been attributed to the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO). In this talk, I will show that the decadal to multi-decadal variability of STMW is controlled by the Atlantic Multi-Decadal Oscillation (AMO). During an AMO positive phase, the subtropical North Pacific westerlies move northward and induce the poleward shift of the Kuroshio-Oyashio (KOE) front. 

This will result in the decrease of STMW with warmer temperature, and further influence the Northwestern Pacific upper-ocean heat content and fish catches. The above decadal decrease of STMW will be carried by the thermocline circulation and arrive at the subtropical western Pacific Ocean after ~5 years, causing the decreasing of the sea level and subtropical front/countercurrents to the east of Luzon Strait and moreover affecting the Kuroshio and its interaction with the South China Sea in the Luzon Strait. 

More interestingly, these temperature anomalies carried by the STMW would eventually re-join the KOE region after one decade later. Once reemerged in the surface ocean, the anomalies that carry the memory of the previous decade may engage with local air-sea feedback to trigger the PDO. Overall, the AMO provides important memory for the climate change in the Pacific Ocean.
