Zusammenfassung |
I report the discovery of a low frequency
temperature oscillation in the eastern North Atlantic (NA), which was
significantly correlated with the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) in the
tropical Pacific, but led the latter index by a number of months. This discovery
is significant, because it demonstrates a link between the tropical Pacific and
the high northerly latitudes which cannot readily be explained in terms of El
Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) feedbacks from the tropics, and opens up the
possibility that ENSO and temperature anomalies in northerly climes, may
actually have a common origin within, or even external to, the global climate
system.
Key words. Meteorology and Atmospheric dynamics
