Abstract: An estimate of the strength of the austral summer Antarctic Oscillation using station sea level pressure records for the period 1878?2000 is presented, the first to the authors' knowledge. The reconstruction was obtained ...

Abstract: he Southern Hemisphere annular mode (SAM) is the dominant mode of climate variability in the extratropical Southern Hemisphere. Representing variations in pressure and the corresponding changes to the circumpolar zonal ...

Abstract: Seasonal reconstructions of the Southern Hemisphere annular mode (SAM) index are derived to extend the record before the reanalysis period, using station sea level pressure (SLP) data as predictors. Two reconstructions ...

Abstract: he variability of the North Atlantic Oscillation is a key aspect of Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation and has a profound impact upon the weather of the surrounding land masses. Recent success with dynamical ...

Abstract: e race for the South Pole during the summer of 1911-1912 was marked by exceptionally high temperature and pressure anomalies experienced by both Amundsen and Scott.

Abstract: To investigate relationships between large-scale circulation and regional-scale temperatures during the last (Eemian) interglacial, a simulation with a general circulation model (GCM) under orbital forcing conditions of ...

Abstract: This second paper examines the Southern Hemisphere annular mode (SAM) variability from reconstructions, observed indices, and simulations from 17 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report ...
