THE ALTERNATE-SEASONAL CORRELATION OF LONG-RANGE WEATHER PROCESS

In this paper,the correlation of meteorological elements at an interval of 5-7 months,i.e.,the alternate-seasonal correlation,is thoroughly analyzed.The results show that the alternate-seasonal correlation is an important phenomenon in the long-range weather process,and it has a significant latitude effect and seasonal variations.Furthermore,the relation between this phenomenon and SST in the North Pacific is discussed.
