The Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) significantly influences the climate of northwestern North America by affecting temperature, precipitation, and the Pacific Ocean ecology. Originating north of 20 degrees north longitude in the Pacific, this climate pattern is distinct from global warming and is integral to understanding regional climate changes.
