Reconstructing ENSO: the influence of method, proxy data,
climate forcing and teleconnections.
Journal of Quaternary Science, Vol. 25, Issue 1, pp. 62–78,
January 2010. DOI: 10.1002/jqs.1297, ISSN 0267-8179.
In this study we compare three newly developed independent NINO3.4
sea surface temperature (SST) reconstructions using data from
(1) the central Pacific (corals), (2) the TexMex region of the
USA (tree rings) and (3) other regions in the Tropics (corals
and an ice core) which are teleconnected with central Pacific
SSTs in the 20th century. Although these three reconstructions
are strongly calibrated and well verified, inter-proxy comparison
shows a significant weakening in interproxy coherence in the
19th century. This breakdown in common signal could be related
to insufficient data, dating errors in some of the proxy records
or a breakdown in El Nino–Southern Oscillation's (ENSO's) influence
on other regions. However, spectral analysis indicates that each
reconstruction portrays ENSO-like spectral properties. Superposed
epoch analysis also shows that each reconstruction shows a
generally consistent 'El Nino-like' response to major volcanic
events in the following year, while during years T+4 to T+7
'La Nina-like' conditions prevail. These results suggest that
each of the series expresses ENSO-like 'behaviour', but this
'behaviour' does not appear to be spatially or temporally consistent.
This result may reflect published observations that there appear
to be distinct 'types' of ENSO variability depending on location
within the tropical Pacific. Future work must address potential
dating issues within some proxies (i.e. sampling of multiple
coral heads for one location) as well as assessing the time
stability of local climate relationships with central Pacific SSTs.
More emphasis is needed on sampling new and extending old coral
proxy records from the crucial central and eastern tropical
STUDY NOTES: Nino3.4 SST reconstructions based on a variety of proxy data,
utilizing 3 reconstruction methodologies, for the core ENSO
region in the central and eastern tropical Pacific, and for
other tropical regions displaying teleconnected ENSO responses.
The first region is labeled the 'centre of action' (COA),
located in the central and eastern Pacific, where SSTs are
positively correlated with NINO3.4 SSTs. The second region
is the 'teleconnection' (TEL) region covering all other
tropical areas where SSTs are either inversely
(e.g. Indonesia to Tonga) or positively (e.g. Indian Ocean)
correlated with NINO3.4 SSTs.
Independent reconstructions of annual NINO3.4 SSTs were
developed for the COA and TEL regions, using three approaches:
(1) composite plus regression, (2) principal component regression,
and (3) regularised expectation maximisation.
