El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a key mode of climate variability with worldwide climate impacts. Recent studies have highlighted the impact of other tropical oceans on its variability. In particular, observations have demonstrated that summer Atlantic Niños (Niñas) favor the development of Pacific Niñas (Niños) the following winter, but it is unclear how well climate models capture this teleconnection and its role in defining the seasonal predictive skill of ENSO.

Food security is among the most pressing global concerns. It is principally threatened by the combination of rural migration and the pressure of climate change. In order to mitigate these effects, the need to promote stable conditions for small producers -who generate 80% of the world's food- has arose.

Extreme heat can be harmful to human health and negatively affect athletic performance. The Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games are predicted to be the most oppressively hot Olympics on record. An interdisciplinary multi-scale perspective is provided concerning extreme heat in Tokyo-from planetary atmospheric dynamics, including El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), to fine-scale urban temperatures-as relevant for heat preparedness efforts by sport, time of day, and venue.

Understanding and extending the predictability of El Niño‒Southern Oscillation (ENSO) has been an important research topic because of ENSO's large influence on global weather and climate. Here, we develop an empirical model of tropical atmosphere-ocean interactions that has high ENSO prediction skill, comparable to the skills of well performing dynamical models. The model is used to investigate the effects of the main atmosphere-ocean interaction processes-thermocline and zonal wind feedbacks and zonal wind forcing-on its ENSO predictability.
