a Dynamical Study of the 1958-59 Stratospheric Polar Vortex.

The circulation of the stratosphere and its relation to the troposphere is presented for the six-month period October, 1958 to March, 1959. The study is based mainly on circumpolar analyses at five-day intervals at the 500-mb, 100-mb and 25-mb levels, supported by numerous space and time sections. Fourier analysis of the circumpolar charts is used to compute energies and energy exchanges after the manner of Lorenz (1955) and unstable wave characteristics following the linear theory of Fleagle (1957).
