Abstract

A theory is developed in stochastic climate models for understanding the general features of seasonal predictability barrier (PB), which is characterized by a band of maximum decline in autocorrelation function phase-locked to a particular season. The theory is first developed in the damped persistence model. Our theory determines the forcing threshold, timing and intensity of the seasonal PB as a function of the damping rate and seasonal forcing. A seasonal PB is found to be an intrinsic feature of a stochastic climate system forced by either seasonal growth rate or seasonal noise forcing. A PB is generated when the seasonal forcing, relative to the damping rate, exceeds a modest threshold. Once generated, all the PBs occur on the same calendar month, forming a seasonal PB. The PB season is determined by the decline of the seasonal forcing as well as the delayed response associated with damping. The intensity of the PB is determined mainly by the amplitude of the seasonal forcing. The theory is able to explain the general features of the seasonal PB of the observed SST variability over the world. The PB theory is further developed in a recharge oscillator model with the application to ENSO seasonal PB in both SST and heat content. Our theory provides a general framework for the understanding of the seasonal PB of climate variability.
