Interannual variability of Central European mean temperature in January-February and its relation to large-scale circulation
The Central European temperature distribution field, as given by 11 stations [Fano, Hamburg, Potsdam, Jena, Frankfurt, Uccle, Hohenpeissenberg, Praha (Prague), Wien (Vienna), Zurich and Geneve (Geneva)], is analyzed with respect to its year-to-year variability. January-February (JF) average temperat...
