Summary statistics from the multivariate
regression using the NAO, the NP and the SO indices as the independent
variables and NH (20° N to 90° N) temperature anomalies as the
dependent variable. Also shown is the correlation matrix and the
partial correlation coefficients. The index that is held constant is
indicated by the subscript.
