*Abstract*
It has been suggested that increased stratospheric sulfate aerosol
loadings following large, low latitude volcanic eruptions can lead to
wintertime warming over Eurasia through dynamical
stratosphere–troposphere coupling. We here investigate the proposed
connection in the context of hypothetical future stratospheric sulfate
geoengineering in the Geoengineering Large Ensemble simulations. In
those geoengineering simulations, we find that stratospheric
circulation anomalies that resemble the positive phase of the Northern
Annular Mode in winter are a distinguishing climate response which is
absent when increasing greenhouse gases alone are prescribed. This
stratospheric dynamical response projects onto the positive phase of
the North Atlantic Oscillation, leading to associated side effects of
this climate intervention strategy, such as continental Eurasian
warming and precipitation changes. Seasonality is a key signature of
the dynamically driven surface response. We find an opposite response
of the North Atlantic Oscillation in summer, when no dynamical role of
the stratosphere is expected. The robustness of the wintertime forced
response stands in contrast to previously proposed volcanic responses.
