Arctic-Mid-Latitude Linkages in a Nonlinear Quasi-Geostrophic Atmospheric Model

Figure 3

Mean geopotential height (gpm) of the 833 hPa model level ((a), (b), and (c)) and from the layer-averaged ERA-Interim reanalysis data ((d), (e), and (f)). At each row, the figures correspond to the low ((a) and (d)) and high ((b) and (e)) Arctic sea-ice-cover conditions and ((c) and (f)) to their difference (low minus high).
