DJF water vapour flux (g s −1 m −2 ) composites from NCEP reanalysis data showing: (a) long-term mean at 700 hPa;(b) as in (a) but for 500 hPa; (c) as in (a) but for 300 hPa; (d) LOW composite at 700 hPa; (e) as in (d) but for 500 hPa; (f) as in(d) but for 300 hPa; (g) HIGH composite at 700 hPa; (h) as in (g) but for 500 hPa; (i) as in (g) but for 300 hPa; (j) LOW+1composite at 700 hPa; (k) as in (j) but for 500 hPa; and (l) as in (j) but for 300 hPa. Shaded grid boxes indicate areas with significantanomalies at the 95% level.
