interannual, El Niño–southern oscillation, gulf of California, coast, seasonal, intraseasonal variability
"Few studies have explored the details of climatology in the Gulf of California (GoC) coastal zone, a region characterized by robust land–sea breeze circulation that results from land heating on both coasts of the GoC. Using hourly historical observations from automatic weather stations (AWSs) from 2008 to 2018, we performed harmonic and empirical orthogonal function analyses to describe the climatology of several characteristics that are regularly monitored in the GoC coastal zone. The characteristics included air temperature (°C), relative humidity (%), atmospheric pressure (hPa), wind intensity (m s−1), and wind direction (°). The National Water Commission (CNA) provided records for stations located along the coast of the GoC. The results revealed an intense annual and, to a lesser extent, interannual signal for all characteristics. The presence of synoptic patterns forces seasonal and intraseasonal variations to occur. In summer, tropical systems increase the seasonal variability, mainly at the eastern mouth of the GoC. Some stations display this increase until the cold season arrives with the passage of winter systems. Finally, we found that interannual variability could be associated with El Niño–Southern Oscillation events."
