2003: The role of Atlantic ocean-atmosphere coupling in affecting North Atlantic Oscillation variability
We review the role of ocean-atmosphere interactions over the Atlantic sector in North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) variability. The emphasis is on physical mecha-nisms, which are illustrated in simple models and analyzed in observations and numerical models. Some directions of research are proposed to...

Summary: | We review the role of ocean-atmosphere interactions over the Atlantic sector in North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) variability. The emphasis is on physical mecha-nisms, which are illustrated in simple models and analyzed in observations and numerical models. Some directions of research are proposed to better assess the rel-evance of Atlantic air-sea interactions to observed and simulated NAO variability. |
