Primes

• Teleconnection
  • These boundary clarifications follow the disambiguation tradition Trenberth (1997) developed in formalizing the definition of El Niño against vague usage:

    This sourceDisambiguates El Niño / ENSO usage and clarifies what does and does not count as a teleconnection signal; basis for the boundary clarifications separating teleconnection from synchrony, common forcing, and indirect common cause.

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
