Hey Christophe, heb jij meer info over dat project ? Ik kan op de site (zonder in te loggen) niet veel informatie vinden. Ik ben zeer benieuwd naar de temperaturen die in januari en februari 1709 zijn gemeten.
Ik vond wel een interessant stukje:
The most immediate cause of cold winters in Europe is usually an icy wind from Siberia. "What you would expect would be long runs of easterly winds with a well-developed anticyclone over Scandinavia sucking in cold air from Siberia," says Wheeler. Instead, his data show a predominance of southerly and westerly winds - which would normally bring warm air to Europe. "There were only occasional northerlies and easterlies and those were never for more than a few days," says Wheeler. Another odd finding was that January was unusually stormy. Winter storms tend to bring milder, if wilder, weather to Europe. "This combination of cold, storms and westerlies suggests some other mechanism was responsible for that winter."
