Indian Ocean warming as a driver of the North Atlantic warming hole
A significant part of the subpolar North Atlantic has warmed less over the past century than the rest of the global ocean, a feature called the North Atlantic warming hole. Here, the authors show that this anomaly can be explained by remote atmospheric forcing from the rapidly warming Indian Ocean.
