Antarctic Sea Ice Index (part 6)
I take a closer look at the relationship between the NSST lower troposphere ocean region temperature anomaly and NOAA’s Antarctic Oscillation Index (AAO)
In part 5 of this series I discovered a fabulous relationship between the South pole lower troposphere ocean anomaly and the Antarctic Oscillation (AAO). Here it is again:
Here we have evidence of a cooler lower troposphere, as measured by the UAH NSST crew, associated with positive-going AAO index, as measured by NOAA. Since these folk know what they are doing it is left to us to figure how they link together and dance over time. Time, then, for one of those cross-correlation function plots methinks!
