| Abstract: |
Together with Eli Tziperman (Harvard), we are looking at understanding what sets the period of El Nino. We have conducted an analysis of the Cane-Zebiak intermediate complexity model (preprint available at http://cds.caltech.edu/~macmardg) and developed new insights based on the linearization of that model both on what physics contributes to determining ENSO~s period, and what parameters significantly influence the period. We are interested in determining whether the same interpretation can be applied for more complex models (and also for ocean data).
