Research Abstract

The El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), an interaction phenomenon between the troposphere and the ocean, has been found to affect the upper atmospheric region from 100 km to 1000 km altitude through long-term satellite observations and is a research topic of significant interest. In this study, we investigate the mechanism of the terrestrial connection by quantifying the radiative and latent heat variations associated with changes in water vapor due to rainfall during ENSO using numerical simulations, and clarify the causes of atmospheric tidal wave fluctuations. The coupling process from sea level to the upper atmosphere in El Nino climate change is clarified, which is expected to improve space weather prediction in the ionosphere and to lead to new developments in the overall atmospheric vertical coupling study.
