Spatial structure of climate anomalies that are linked to each other through teleconnection processes or that are the large-scale fingerprint of modes of climate variability. Teleconnection patterns can be visualized using correlation and/or regression maps of climate variables with some climate indices (i.e., those derived from the temporal variation of the main modes of climate variability). They can also be obtained from principal component analysis, singular value decomposition/maximum covariance analysis, clustering based on spatial recurrence criteria, etc. See also Section Atlas.3.1 of the AR6 WGI report and Teleconnection.
