Description:Temperature variations in the North and tropical Pacific contribute to the predictability of temperatures along the 26.4 σ isopycnal layer off the Northern California Current System (N-CCS). Monthly temperature variations at this depth in the N-CCS are related to a linear combination of factors, including North Pacific spice anomalies, and the PDO and ENSO climate indices. However, the mechanisms for seasonal predictability of subsurface temperatures, are not well explored. While wind and buoyancy driven deep winter mixing influence subsurface temperatures during the following summer in the deep basin of the North Pacific, a coupled atmosphere-ocean reanalysis (the CFSR) reveals that winter prior surface temperatures explain only
