  <Summary>
    <Abstract>Monthly (1659-1995) and seasonal (1500-1658) North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) indices were estimated using instrumental and documentary proxy predictors from Eurasia. Uncertainty estimates were calculated for the reconstructions, and the variability of the 500-year winter NAO has been assessed. The late twentieth century NAO extremes are within the range of variability during earlier centuries. 
          STUDY NOTES: Reconstructed monthly NAO index back to December 1658 and seasonal estimates 1500-1658. </Abstract>
