A period of warm winters in Western Greenland and the temperature see‐saw between Western Greenland and Central Europe
Abstract Particulars are given regarding the big rise of winter temperatures in Greenland and its more oceanic climate during the last fifteen years. Observations covering sixty years show a marked negative correlation of simultaneous temperatures between western Greenland and the regions around the...

Summary: | Abstract Particulars are given regarding the big rise of winter temperatures in Greenland and its more oceanic climate during the last fifteen years. Observations covering sixty years show a marked negative correlation of simultaneous temperatures between western Greenland and the regions around the Baltic Sea. This temperature see‐saw can be explained by the simultaneous pressure anomalies over Iceland and the Norwegian Sea and the changes of the meridional pressure gradient over the northern Atlantic. |
