THE EFFECT OF SURFACE TEMPERATURE VARIATIONS ON THE POLAR NIGHT JET
The possibility of differential heating in the ozone layer due to differences in ground and lower troposphere temperatures as a mechanism for producing the observed stationary perturbations of the polar night jet was examined. It is found that this mechanism is not likely to be the cause of the dist...

Summary: | The possibility of differential heating in the ozone layer due to differences in ground and lower troposphere temperatures as a mechanism for producing the observed stationary perturbations of the polar night jet was examined. It is found that this mechanism is not likely to be the cause of the disturbances. (Author) |
