Just modified the two sentences and 1F is good now. El Niño and La Niña are associated with warmer and colder than usual sea surface temperatures and upper ocean heat content in the tropical Pacific, which can impact TC formation and intensity. To El Niño (La Niña) events are associated with warmer (colder) than usual sea surface temperatures and anomalously higher (lower) heat content in the upper ocean of the tropical Pacific, which can impact TC formation and intensity. The PMM has also been linked to increases and decreases in landfalling TCs in the North Atlantic (Zhang et al. 2017). Actually the sentence is: AMM is possibly correlated with several TC intensity metrics in the North Atlantic (Vimont and Kossin 2007) and negatively collrelated with TC counts in the Western North Pacific (Zhang et al. 2017) And is now modified to: Positive correlation is found between the AMM and several TC intensity metrics in the North Atlantic (Vimont and Kossin 2007), while negative collrelation is found between AMM and TC counts in the Western North Pacific (Zhang et al. 2017) Also modified the paragraph in 1A and 1A is also good now: Numerical weather prediction models are used to predict tropical cyclones and issue warnings days in advance, and to study small-scale phenomena within storms. To We can now use numerical weather prediction models to predict tropical cyclones and issue warnings days in advance, and to study small-scale phenomena within storms.

How is your trip so far? I just used the free online version of Plagiarism Checker from Grammarly (https://www.grammarly.com/plagiarism-checker) to do a scan of our document. The full version is not free but may not be necessary for our purposes. If some plagiarism is detected for each section, I could narrow down to which paragraph. Below is the summary of the results. Screenshots of the results are available at: http://tigress-web.princeton.edu/~wenchang/pub/TC_book_chapter_check_report/. * Abstract: good * 1A: Plagiarism is detected over paragraph of "Today, new ways…”. * 1B: good * 1C: good except for Table 1 and caption of Figure 4 * 1D: good * 1E: good * 1F: plagiarism is detected over the two paragraphs: "The dominant driver of TC interannual variability…” and "Meridional climate modes can also…”. * 1G: good * 1H: good My understanding is that Table 1 in 1C is directly copied from somewhere and caption of Figure 4 in 1C is modified from Kerry’s old PI figure. That’s why the plagiarism is detected there. Do you have any idea for the reasons of the other ones?
