To explore this they used an index of weather severity called the North Atlantic oscillation.
Variable airflow and oscillation is controlled either by remote or on the front of the machine.

We drove past numerous dealers in firearms and agricultural machinery, making visible the primeval oscillation between hunting and farming.
The culprit here is a number called the North Atlantic Oscillation index.
The El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is generally thought to be the main reason for inter-annual warming or cooling.
In particular, in polar regions it appears to weaken the Arctic Oscillation winds.

This pole-centred roundel of warm-in-cold is symptomatic of what climatologists call the negative phase of the Arctic oscillation (AO).
ECONOMIST: Britain��s cold snap is explained by the Arctic oscillation
La Nina is the cold cousin of El Nino - the two collectively making up the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO).
The stock's oscillation pattern had become a running joke among brokers and the subject of several skeptical articles in the local press.
When the Arctic Oscillation turns negative, that is, when the winds weaken, the cold air normally trapped around the North Pole surges south.

Hit a bump midcorner and the suspension (wishbones up front and multilink in back) dissipates it nicely, and the TL regains its cornering posture with little oscillation.
The global temperature trends since then have followed not rising CO2 trends but the ocean temperature cycles of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) and the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO).
FORBES: To The Horror Of Global Warming Alarmists, Global Cooling Is Here
Anyone with even a modicum of knowledge about climate history recognizes that the Arctic experiences substantial climate swings about every 60-70 years due to entirely natural ocean oscillation cycles.

Much of the variability in global TC ACE is explained by the concomitant changes or evolution in the character of the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO).
FORBES: Yes, There's A Link Between Hurricane Irene And Global Warming
The reason is that another experimental result, published in 1995 by the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, showed signs of a third sort of oscillation, from muon-to electron-flavoured neutrinos.
He says the MJO can be an important predictor of the state of the North Atlantic Oscillation - which controls much of our weather in the UK - about 2-4 weeks in advance.
But by the Berkeley team's analysis, the global temperature correlates more closely with the state of the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) index - a measure of sea surface temperature in the north Atlantic.
These mini-narratives allow the visitor to experience Mr. Adams's oscillation between tragic environments destroyed by humans, and the renewal he subsequently sought in other subjects, such as the tranquil beach landscapes of his "Sea Stories, This Day" series.

She said that this year's conditions were partly caused by a move to a negative phase of the North Atlantic Oscillation which would be likely to lead to more frequent cold, drier winters - like the 1960s - and also wetter summers for 10-20 years.
"There is other research out there pointing out that this storage may be part of a natural cycle that will eventually reverse, either due to El Nino or the so-called Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation, and therefore may not imply what the authors are suggesting, " he said.
Instead, the temperature record shows an up and down pattern that follows the pattern of natural influences on global temperatures, such as cyclical sunspots and solar flares, and cycles of ocean churning from warmer to colder temperatures and back, such as the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO).
FORBES: Fakegate: The Obnoxious Fabrication of Global Warming
Panic grips the markets, spreading outward from one global capital and then back inward in a spiraling oscillation of fear and greed and fear again that roams from New York to London to Germany to Japan and back to New York again, whether through Moscow or Calgary or Milan.
