Separating annual, inter-annual and regional change in Sea Surface Temperature in the Northeastern Atlantic and Nordic Seas

Key Points: Seasonal fluctuations in Nordic Seas and Northeastern Atlantic sea surface temperaturesexplains 90 % of the variability. Both summer maxima and winter minima are warming, with summer temperatureswarming twice as fast (0.4 and 0.2 °C per decade). Other sources of variability include sea-i...

Description
Summary:Key Points: Seasonal fluctuations in Nordic Seas and Northeastern Atlantic sea surface temperaturesexplains 90 % of the variability. Both summer maxima and winter minima are warming, with summer temperatureswarming twice as fast (0.4 and 0.2 °C per decade). Other sources of variability include sea-ice melt and switches in large-scaleoceanographic conditions in the Northeastern Atlantic.
