“…10 The linear trend of a wind effect on latent heat flux from atmospheric forcing part (Q E W , colors, Wm −2 /10 yr) and surface wind (vector, ms −1 /10 yr), c SST (colors, K/10 yr) and surface wind (vector, ms −1 /10 yr), e sea surface height (SSH, colors, cm/10 yr) and surface wind (vector, ms −1 /10 yr), and g precipitation (colors, mmd −1 /10 yr) and surface wind (vector, ms −1 /10 yr) from ensemble means of the all-forcing runs from 16 CMIP5 models during the northern TIO and the northwesterly anomalies reduce the southeasterly trades over the southern TIO, which are favorable for the non-uniform IOBM-like warming pattern. As stated by Du et al (2013), the anomalous SST warming over the south TIO induced by the down-welling ocean Rossby wave and enhanced atmospheric advection with positive precipitation anomalies (Fig. 10h), reflecting the slowdown of the Walker circulation under global warming Vecchi et al 2006), trigger the anti-symmetric atmospheric circulation.…”
