Links between large‐scale anomalies, rainfall and wine quality in the Iberian Peninsula during the last three decades
Summary Recent strong El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) signals have been identified in precipitation records from the Iberian Peninsula. Interannual association with ENSO accounts for more than half the total annual variance in selected stations of the south‐east, with ENSO leading rainfall by on...
