ENSO Metrics#
Overview#
The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the dominant mode of interannual variability in the tropical Pacific and has far-reaching impacts on climate around the world. It is therefore key to ensure the correct simulation of ENSO in state-of-the-art climate models. A community-wide synthesis of metrics to evaluate the performance, teleconnections and processes of ENSO in coupled GCMs have been implemented to PMP as a result of the collaboration with the ENSO Metrics Working Group of the International CLIVAR Pacific Panel.
