2、hase transitions during 1978-1990(P1) and 1991-2009(P2). The focus of this study is on the structure and evolution characteristics of different transitions, which is performed on some basic variables such as geopotential

3、 height and zonal wind. The results of a composite analysis with NAO Index suggest that the frequency of the NAO- to NAO+ transition is dominant during P1, while the NAO+ to NAO- transition prevails during P2. As the lat

4、er phase of the transition(NAO-) is much stronger during P2 than that of P1, it is likely to partly account for the linear downtrending within P2. The composite of geopotential height shows that, the main characters of d
