European climate is heavily influenced by the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). However, the spatial structure of the NAO is varying with time, affecting its regional importance.

Forest productivity in southwestern Europe is controlled by coupled North Atlantic and Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillations [PDF]
The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) drives biological responses in terrestrial ecosystems through oscillatory modes of climatic variability. Here, the authors show how landscape scale productivity responses to NAO are contingent upon the Atlantic ...

North Atlantic oscillation controls multidecadal changes in the North Tropical Atlantic−Pacific connection [PDF]
The drivers of multidecadal changes in the North Tropical Atlantic−Pacific connection are still not fully understood. Here, the authors show that they are mainly controlled by multidecadal variability associated with the North Atlantic Oscillation.

Theoretical Investigation of the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation [PDF]
AbstractA weakly damped mode of variability, corresponding to the oceanic signature of the Atlantic multidecadal oscillation (AMO) was found through the linear stability analysis of a realistic ocean general circulation model. A simple two-level model was proposed to rationalize both its period and damping rate.

A delay equation model for the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation [PDF]
A new technique to derive delay models from systems of partial differential equations, based on the Mori–Zwanzig (MZ) formalism, is used to derive a delay-difference equation model for the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO). The MZ formalism gives a rewriting of the original system of equations, which contains a memory term.

Northern Hemisphere (NH) climate has experienced various coherent wintertime multidecadal climate trends in stratosphere, troposphere, ocean, and cryosphere. However, the overall mechanistic framework linking these trends is not well established. Here we

Simulated Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation during the Holocene [PDF]
Abstract The Atlantic multidecadal oscillation (AMO) and its possible change during the Holocene are examined in this study, using long-term simulations of the earth system model Community Earth System Models (COSMOS). A quasi-persistent ~55–80-yr cycle characterizing in the North Atlantic sea surface temperature is highly associated ...

A stochastic dynamical systems view of the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation
We provide a dynamical systems framework to understand the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation and show that this framework is in many ways similar to that of the El Niño/Southern Oscillation. A so-called minimal primitive equation model is used to represent the Atlantic Ocean circulation.

Tracking the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation through the last 8,000 years. [PDF]
Understanding the internal ocean variability and its influence on climate is imperative for society. A key aspect concerns the enigmatic Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO), a feature defined by a 60- to 90-year variability in North Atlantic sea-surface temperatures.

Multidecadal Mobility of the North Atlantic Oscillation [PDF]
Abstract The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is one of the most important modes of variability in the global climate system and is characterized by a meridional dipole in the sea level pressure field, with centers of action near Iceland and the Azores.
