Low-Order Stochastic Mode Reduction for a Realistic Barotropic Model Climate (2005, background): “Stephenson et al. (2000) find that interannual variations of the NAO have a broadband spectrum, which is close to being white noise by analyzing monthly mean data.”
A quick gap filling of missing hydrometeorological data (2014, background): “…different characteristics in terms of time dependence of the process, and they are commonly present in different hydrometeorological variables (e.g., runoff [Koutsoyiannis, 2013], precipitation [Marani, 2003], sea level pressure, and temperature [Percival et al., 2001; Stephenson et al., 2000]).”
Uncertainty, entropy, scaling and hydrological stochastics. 2. Time dependence of hydrological processes and time scaling / Incertitude, entropie, effet d'échelle et propriétés stochastiques hydrologiques. 2. Dépendance temporelle des processus hydrologiques et échelle temporelle (2005, background): “, 2004); indexes of North Atlantic Oscillation (Stephenson et al., 2000); and tree-ring widths, which are indicators of past climate (Koutsoyiannis, 2002a).”
Statistical analysis of hydroclimatic time series: Uncertainty and insights (2007, methodology): “Similar analyses have been conducted for other climatological time series including wind power and indexes of North Atlantic Oscillation [Haslett andRaftery, 1989; Stephenson et al., 2000] as well as proxy series such as tree ring widths or isotope concentrations [Pelletier and Turcotte, 1997; Kouts”
Decadal interactions between the western tropical Pacific and the North Atlantic Oscillation (2005, background): “1. The residual of internal atmospheric variability or climate noise (e.g. Wunsch 1999; Stephenson et al. 2000 ).”
Granger Causality of Coupled Climate Processes: Ocean Feedback on the North Atlantic Oscillation (2006, background): “, multiannual and decadal) nonmonotonic stochastic trends (Stephenson et al. 2000).”
A Mechanism and Simple Dynamical Model of the North Atlantic Oscillation and Annular Modes (2004, background): “However, it is unclear whether the power in these patterns continues to increase for time scales longer than the interannual—that is, whether the spectrum continues to redden for increasingly long time scales or whether it flattens out and whitens (see Stephenson et al. 2000 ).”
The Recent Trend and Variance Increase of the Annular Mode (2002, methodology): “In another observational study, Stephenson et al. (2000) used a Kruskal‐Wallis H statistic to examine whether decadal trends of the closely related NAO index exceed the 90% confidence levels against a white noise process.”
Revisiting long-range dependence in annual precipitation (2018, background): “1993; Pelletier and Turcotte, 1997], wind power [Haslett and Raftery, 1989] and the North28 Atlantic oscillation index [Stephenson et al., 2000].”
Nonlinear Trends, Long-Range Dependence, and Climate Noise Properties of Surface Temperature (2012, background): “There are two paradigmatic models for the correlation structure of time series: short- and long-rangedependent models (Granger 1980; Hosking 1981; Beran 1994; Stephenson et al. 2000; Percival et al. 2001; Franzke 2010; Franzke et al. 2012).”
The Hurst phenomenon and fractional Gaussian noise made easy (2002, background): “…flows of the River Warta, Poland (Radziejewski & Kundzewicz, 1997), monthly and daily inflows of Lake Maggiore, Italy (Montanari et al., 1997), annual streamflow records across the continental United States (Vogel et al., 1998), and indexes of North Atlantic Oscillation (Stephenson et al., 2000).”
