We introduce bilayer networks in this paper to study the coupled air-sea systems. It proved true that the framework of bilayer networks is powerful for studying the statistical topology structure and dynamics between the fields of ocean and atmosphere. Based on bilayer network, we identify the key correlation regions within and between the air-sea systems. A coupled mechanism between Asia monsoon circulation and Walker circulation is proposed to explain the high correlation phenomenon between the regions on air-sea interaction. We also identify the key regions, which influence the air-sea systems more strongly. The new framework uncovers already known as well other novel features of the air-sea systems and general circulation. It is fruitful to apply the complex networks theory and methodology to understand the complex interactions between the ocean and the atmosphere.
