The Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) affects weather patterns in the North Pacific and nearby regions. Researchers found that certain MJO phases consistently influence atmospheric circulation. By analyzing data and model forecasts, they discovered that these MJO phases can help predict geopotential height anomalies up to 3 weeks in advance. This extends the accuracy of weather predictions beyond the usual 10–13 day limit.
