Short summary
The interannual variation of the strength of the SAG in relation to NAO was studied. The intensity of the gyre is associated with the large-scale climatic variations via the wind-stress curl forcing. However due to the rather important contribution of the vorticity advection from the Ionian, which is more significant during the anticyclonic BiOS, there is no clear evidence of a direct effect of large-scale atmospheric circulation (NAO) on the interannual variability of the intensity of the SAG.
