Definition

  • [W. A. Müller] The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is a major winter climate mode, describing one-third of the\ inter-annual variability of the upper-level flow in the Atlantic European mid-latitudes. It provides\ a statistically well-defined pattern to study the predictability of the European winter climate... , "[António R. Tomé] The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is a major feature of the Northern Hemisphere climate system.\ The unprecedented trends it exhibited after the early 60's led some authors to propose human\ induced climate forcing as a possible cause... , "[Stephen R. Meyers] The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is the leading mode of atmospheric variability in the North\ Atlantic region, influencing storm tracks and creating a dipole pattern of precipitation from north\ to south across Western Europe. This distinct spatial distribution of precipitation provides a\ framework that can be potentially used to identify and reconstruct patterns of past NAOforced\ climate variability... , "[Gordana Jovanovic] The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is the most significant large-scale mode of natural climate\ variability on the Northern Hemisphere and Arctic Oscillation (AO) is its supplement. Both have\ large impacts on weather and climate in the North Atlantic region and surrounding continents\ including Europe. NAO and AO phases cause specific already defined changes in distribution of\ climate elements in wide area... , "[Eleanor Jennings] The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is a winter phenomenon in which the north-south contrast in\ barometric pressure in the Atlantic shows interannual variability with approximately decadal\ cycles...
