.e., ocean–atmosphere) dynamics. Conceptually, coupling implies that in certain regions the land surface (by inducing persistence or climate “memory”) may act to reinforce meteorological extremes (i.e., flood and drought). Indeed, coupling is believed to have played an important role in the European heat waves ( Fischer et al. 2007 ); projected changes in temperature variability in Europe are largely due to enhanced coupling as well ( Seneviratne et al. 2006 ). It follows that the strength and
