| Summary: | The study recorded here was undertaken as a contribution to a larger study involving the heat balance of the Arctic. The purpose of the study was to investigate the nature of atmospheric systems which bring about the poleward heat transport at these latitudes as well as the magnitude of the total transport. At the same time the possibility of relating the heat transport to the circulation pattern was studied. The period of study was January, February and December, 1958 and 1959. Special attention was given to two six day periods in January, 1958. |
