Climate Dynamics (1990) 4:157-174 Dynumia Northern Hemisphere atmospheric response to changes of Atlantic Ocean SST on decadal time scales: a GCM experiment*

Abstract. Analyses indicate that the Atlantic Ocean seasurface temperature (SST) was considerably colder at the beginning than in the middle of the century. In parallel, a systematic change in the North Atlantic sealevel pressure (SLP) pattern was observed. To find out whether the SST and SLP change...

Description
Summary:Abstract. Analyses indicate that the Atlantic Ocean seasurface temperature (SST) was considerably colder at the beginning than in the middle of the century. In parallel, a systematic change in the North Atlantic sealevel pressure (SLP) pattern was observed. To find out whether the SST and SLP changes analyzed are consistent, which would indicate that the SST change was real and not an
