## Abstract A systematic examination of the dynamical relationship between the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and atmospheric blocking episodes in the North Atlantic during winter is undertaken. Employing the blocking criteria, as defined by Tibaldi and Molteni (1990), we first establish a statis

The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is a major mode of large-scale climate variability which contains a broad spectrum of variations. There are substantial contributions from short-term 2 -5 year variations, which have clearly marked teleconnections. Decadal trends are also apparent in the historic
## Abstract The North Atlantic oscillation (NAO) is a large‐scale seesawing movement of atmospheric mass between the North Atlantic subtropical high‐pressure system and the Icelandic low‐pressure system. This phenomenon has been acknowledged as the dominant mode of winter climate variability in the
The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is one of the most important climatic patterns in the Northern Hemisphere. Indices based on the normalised pressure difference between Iceland and a southern station, such as Lisbon or Gibraltar, have been defined in order to describe NAO temporal evolution. Alth
