The UK weather has been totally unpredictable since the turn of the new year. Red weather warnings, travel chaos, flooding, and heavy snow and rainfall have battered Scotland for pretty much three ...

This change could be influenced by decadal variations in the Earth's climate system, particularly the North Atlantic Oscillation. This discovery highlights the importance of climate mechanisms and ...

These updates take into account the influence of key climate variability patterns, including the North Atlantic Oscillation, the Arctic Oscillation and the Indian Ocean Dipole. The updates also ...

Specifically, two consecutive years of a strong negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), a shift in atmospheric pressure ...

"In the late 1990s, the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation shifted from a negative to a positive phase, inducing anomalous circulation over the North Atlantic. These anomalies propagated eastward ...

Similarly, positive pressure anomalies from the Gulf of Mexico to the North Atlantic further suggest ... Finally, the state of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, more commonly referred to as ...

We are months away from the start of the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season and now is the best time to start preparing.
