Large-scale states of ocean and atmosphere control the quantity and routine of vapor transported into land and the land water storage pattern. However, the contributions of leading climatic modes, or teleconnections (TCs), to global terrestrial water storage (TWS) variations are poorly understood. Here, we use measurements from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission to study 14 main TC controls on river basins and continental and global water storage patterns. Variations in terrestrial water storage anomaly (TWSA) in more than 97.5% of the global land surface are significantly correlated with at least 1 studied climatic mode. Among the 14 leading climatic modes, the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO), and Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) affect terrestrial water storage in 76.5%, 74.6%, 59.7% and 46.4% of the global land surface, respectively. By associating each TC contribution, ENSO appears to have a weaker control on global land water storage than previously thought for dominating TWSA in 31.8% of global land, in contrast to PDO dominating TWSA in 36.6%. Our results suggest that the phase combination of TCs adjusts the response degree and time lag of land water storage via different hydrological cycle components, while the processes remain dynamic and highly uncertain.

海洋和大气的大规模状态控制着输送到陆地的蒸气的量和规律以及地下水的储存方式。但是，人们对主要的气候模式或远程连接（TC）对全球陆地水存储（TWS）变化的贡献知之甚少。在这里，我们使用重力恢复和气候实验（GRACE）卫星任务的测量结果，研究了14个主要的TC对流域以及大陆和全球储水方式的控制。全球陆地面积超过97.5％的陆地储水异常（TWSA）的变化与至少一种研究的气候模式显着相关。在14种主要气候模式中，厄尔尼诺-南方涛动（ENSO），太平洋年代际涛动（PDO），大西洋多年代际涛动（AMO），印度洋偶极子（IOD）和印度洋偶极子（IOD）分别影响全球陆地面积的76.5％，74.6％，59.7％和46.4％。通过关联每个TC贡献，ENSO对全球陆地水储量的控制似乎比先前认为的在31.8％的全球土地上占TWSA的控制权要弱，而PDO在TWSA中占36.6％的控制权则相反。我们的结果表明，TCs的相结合通过不同的水文循环成分来调节地下水的响应程度和时滞，而过程仍保持动态且高度不确定。相比之下，PDO占TWSA的36.6％。我们的结果表明，TCs的相结合通过不同的水文循环成分来调节地下水的响应程度和时滞，而过程仍保持动态且高度不确定。相比之下，PDO占TWSA的36.6％。我们的结果表明，TCs的相结合通过不同的水文循环成分来调节地下水的响应程度和时滞，而过程仍保持动态且高度不确定。
