Abstract

We examine the potential predictability of an important Iberian river (Douro) based on the coupling of a time series approach (ARMA) and previous seasonal sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies. A comprehensive search for predictors has identified only two key regions where spring streamflow anomalies are stably correlated with previous winter SST anomalies during the whole period under study (1956–2006); (1) central North Atlantic Ocean and (2) south-western Atlantic. A modelling scheme (the SST_model), based on linear regression, is developed and applied to simulate streamflow anomalies from these key SST regions.
