. Broad-peak intraseasonal oscillations in large-scale Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation patterns provide a basis for extended-range weather prediction, given an understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Theoretical work and general circulation model (GCM) experiments suggest that the mi...
