N2 - We examine relationships between the variability in the long-term time series of European sea level and the large-scale atmospheric circulation represented by the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and Arctic Oscillation (AO) indices using the wavelet transform (WT). Results demonstrate that between 10% and 35% of the variance in winter mean sea level may be explained by the atmospheric circulation influence. However, the relationship between atmospheric circulation and sea level shows remarkable changes over time, especially between the earlier part of the twentieth century and the 1990s. Four dominant signals with periods 2.2, 3.5, 5.2 and 7.8 yr are detected and analysed by the WT using time series of sea level typically 150 yr long together with the NAO/AO indices. Cross-wavelet power and wavelet coherence confirm the linkages between the two parameters for selective time periods.
