Figure 1. Distributions of<br />

lagged temporal correlation<br />

coefficients between b<strong>and</strong>pass<br />

filtered fluctuations of<br />

850 mb relative vorticity at<br />

the base point (15°N<br />

132.5°E) <strong>and</strong> the corresponding<br />

fluctuations at individual<br />

grid points. The time<br />

lag relative to the time series<br />

at the base point ranges from<br />

-2 to +2 days, <strong>and</strong> is indicated<br />

at the upper right h<strong>and</strong> corner<br />

of the appropriate panel. The<br />

position of the base point is<br />

indicated in each panel by a<br />

solid dot. Contour interval is<br />

0.1. Values less than -0.1 are<br />

indicated by stippling. The<br />

zero contour has been omitted<br />

for sake of clarify.<br />

Extrema are expressed in<br />

percent.<br />
