Quantifying the variability of the annular modes: reanalysis uncertainty vs. sampling uncertainty

<p>The annular modes characterize the dominant variability of the extratropical circulation in each hemisphere, quantifying vacillations in the position of the tropospheric jet streams and the strength of the stratospheric polar vortices. Their representation in all available reanalysis pro...
