Figure 7: Scheme summarizing the main processes at play in the North Atlantic response to volcanic eruptions.

From: Bidecadal North Atlantic ocean circulation variability controlled by timing of volcanic eruptions

Figure 7

Blue boxes depict oceanic processes and red boxes depict the proxies considered here. Purple arrows represent causality links together with the associated time lags in years. Dotted arrows only depict a temporal link, with no direct interaction. The green arrow represents the delayed negative feedback that triggers the reversal phase of the 20-year cycle.
