Everyone should consider the possibility that for some indices, North Atlantic correlations (in correlation maps) are depressed by the North Atlantic's sensitivity (being the smaller northern basin surrounded by a lot of land / ice, resulting «higher continentality»), which gives it a propensity towards high amplitude oscillations, including decadal - timescale nonlinear trends.

I hate idiots that compute linear trends for nonlinear phenomenon.

A generalized nonlinear mixed model was used for modeling temporal trends of tree mortality and recruitment rates, and a linear mixed model was used for modeling temporal trends of tree growth rates (Methods).

Different approaches have been used to compute the mean rate of 20th century global mean sea level (GMSL) rise from the available tide gauge data: computing average rates from only very long, nearly continuous records; using more numerous but shorter records and filters to separate nonlinear trends from decadal - scale quasi-periodic variability; neural network methods; computing regional sea level for specific basins then averaging; or projecting tide gauge records onto empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs) computed from modern altimetry or EOFs from ocean models.
