The response of Iberian rivers to the North Atlantic Oscillation
In this study we analyzed the influence of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) on the streamflow in 187 sub-basins of the Iberian Peninsula. Monthly and one-month lagged correlations were conducted to assess the spatiotemporal extent of the NAO influence on Iberian river discharges. Analysis of the persistence of the winter NAO throughout the year was also undertaken, together with analysis of...
متن کاملAn Overview of the North Atlantic Oscillation
The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is one of the most prominent and recurrent patterns of atmospheric circulation variability. It dictates climate variability from the eastern seaboard of the United States to Siberia and from the Arctic to the subtropical Atlantic, especially during boreal winter, so variations in the NAO are important to society and for the environment. Understanding the pro...
متن کاملSynoptic View of the North Atlantic Oscillation
This article investigates the synoptic characteristics of individual North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) events by examining the daily evolution of the potential temperature field on the nominal tropopause (the 2-PVU surface). This quantity is obtained from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction–National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP–NCAR) reanalysis dataset for the winter seaso...
متن کاملThe Effects of North Atlantic Oscillation on the atmospheric middle level Anomaly and precipitation of Iran.Case study: west of Iran.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the North Atlantic Oscillation on the middle levels of Atmosphere and precipitation changes in the West of country. To do this, first monthly rainfall data of 17 synoptic stations of the West Country in period of 30 years from 1984 to 2014 of country were collected from Meteorological Organization. As well as North Atlantic Oscillation...
متن کاملThe Response of Freshwater Ecosystems to Climate Variability Associated with the North Atlantic Oscillation
Freshwater ecosystems have been repeatedly shown to respond significantly to large-scale climatic fluctuations [e.g., Strub et al., 1985; Firth and Fisher, 1992; George and Taylor, 1995; Anderson et al., 1996; Schindler, 1997]. Because human demand for high-quality fresh water is continually increasing, the practical relevance of such responses for the large-scale management of inland waters is...
