Suppressed eddy driving during southward excursions of the North Atlantic jet on synoptic to seasonal time scales
Abstract Jet streams shape midlatitude weather and climate. The North Atlantic jet is mainly eddy‐driven, with frequent north–south excursions on synoptic time scales arising from eddy forcings and feedbacks. There are, however, special periods during which the underlying dynamics appear to change—f...
