Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The influence of the solar cycle on the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) from the upper stratosphere to the surface was examined through lagged regression analyses using recent observations, historical observations, and an earth system model simulation. The propagation of the solar signal was well explained by a top-down mechanism modulated by the ocean: The solar signal first appears in the subtropical upper stratosphere as a temperature signal, the associated zonal wind signal propagates downward to the surface through the activity of the Polar-night Jet Oscillation, and finally the NAO is driven at the surface around the solar activity peak years. This signal is further modulated in such a way that the positive NAO signal tends to appear earlier in the winter as the number of years after the solar activity peak increases. The solar-NAO relationship on a 50-year time scale also suggest that nonlinear interactions occur between solar forcing and ocean dynamics.
