| Abstract: | Correlation of water temperature and latent heat fluxes in winter in the North Atlantic with the atmospheric circulation in the subsequent months are analyzed based on the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data. Monthly and daily indices of the North Atlantic Oscillation are used as characteristics of the atmosphere circulation. It is shown that conditions of the heat exchange between ocean and atmosphere in the western North Atlantic in February can influence the atmospheric circulation and air temperature in Europe in March. |
