Stratospheric sudden coolings and the role of nonlinear wave interactions in preconditioning the circumpolar flow.

Abstract:

The mechanisms responsible for the transition of the circumpolar flow from its normal midwinter state to this preconditioned state are investigated through a combination of observational numerical and theoretical studies. For the 1978-79 winter, this transition occurred during the substantial wavenumber-1 minor warming of January 1979, and the characteristic structure associated with the preconditioned mean zonal flow was established four days after the peak of this warming, during a period of intense high latitude acceleration.-from Authors
