Descripción
Winter weekly cycles of different climatic variables have been detected
over Spain during the 1961-2004 period. The 13 analyzed series come from
stations placed on different climatological and geographical areas with
different level of urban influence. Therefore, the weekly cycles can
hardly be related with local effects. Contrarily, we suggest that the
weekly cycles may be related with changes in the atmospheric circulation
over Western Europe, which may be due to some indirect effect of
anthropogenic aerosols. Particularly interesting is the observed
increase in Sea Level Pressure over Southern Europe during the weekends
and consequently a decrease of anticyclonic conditions during the
central weekdays.
