  Arctic oscillation Newsletter 14   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The AO in the troposphere is strongly coupled to the strength of the stratospheric polar vortex, and stratospheric circulation anomalies are seen to propagate downward to the Earth’s surface, where they are reflected as changes in the magnitude and sign of the AO [Baldwin and Dunkerton, 1999].
Since the AO modulates the circulation of the northern troposphere, and even influences low latitudes, such as the strength of the trade winds across the subtropical and tropical Atlantic, intraseasonal changes in the stratospheric circulation are observed to precede both high-latitude and low latitude Atlantic climate anomalies and significant weather events.
It appears that the phase and strength of the AO, especially in the stratosphere, are influenced by the QBO in a manner consistent with the QBO’s effect on the strength of the polar vortex.
