The missing Northern European winter cooling response to Arctic sea ice loss

It is proposed that Arctic sea ice loss may be a cause of colder European winters, by promoting the negative phase of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). Here, the author shows that despite an intensification of negative NAO events, sea ice loss does not lead to cooling, and cold extremes actually...
