Multidecadal climate oscillations during the past millennium driven by volcanic forcing
A volcanic source of variation The Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO), a 50- to 70-year quasiperiodic variation of climate centered in the North Atlantic region, was long thought to be an internal oscillation of the climate system. Mann et al. now show that this variation is forced externally b...
