    Notes: Summary The zonal eddy stress across horizontal surfaces due to large scale vertical motions was evaluated for two months from data for the northern hemisphere for a number of levels up to 50 mb. From this information and from the corresponding distributions for each of the two months of the mean zonal winds, the rate of transformation of kinetic energy from eddy to mean zonal form was calculated. The two sets of data gave rather small values for the hemisphere which were of opposite sign.

    Notes: Summary This paper discusses the need for a global network of meteor wind stations for determining the general circulation of the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere. Continuous observations of horizontal motions from such a network would permit resolution of planetary scale eddy winds, tides, and gravity waves, and hypotheses that such motions propagate vertically from the lower atmosphere or are generated in situ by solar activity could be examined critically with observational data. The observed mean winds from the lower stratosphere to the meteor wind level are summarized to support the hypothesis that a standing wave pattern in the winds extends into the lower thermosphere. Data on tidal meridional momentum transports from meteor wind stations suggest that tides in the lower thermosphere are important for the maintenance of mean winds. Some of the geomagnetic and photochemical processes in the lower thermosphere that could be investigated with meteor wind data are briefly reviewed.

    Notes: Abstract The 1981–82 Solar Mesosphere Explorer (SME) mission is described. The SME experiment will provide a comprehensive study of mesospheric ozone and the processes which form and destroy it. Five instruments will be carried on the spinning spacecraft to measure the ozone density and its altitude distribution from 30 to 80 km, monitor the incoming solar ultraviolet radiation, and measure other atmospheric constituent which affect ozone. The polar-orbiting spacecraft will be placed into a 3pm-3 am Sun-synchronous orbit. The atmospheric measurements will scan the Earth's limb and measure: (1) the mesospheric and stratospheric ozone density distribution by inversion of Rayleigh-scattered ultraviolet limb radiance, and the thermal emission from ozone at 9.6 μm; (2) the water vapor density distribution by inversion of thermal emission at 6.3 μm; (3) the ozone photolysis rate by inversion of the O2(1Δg) 1.27 μm limb radiance; (4) the temperature profile by a combination of narrow-band and wide-band measurements of the 15 μm thermal emission by CO2; and, (5) theNO2 density distribution by inversion of Rayleighscattered limb radiance at 0.439 μm. The solar ultraviolet monitor will measure both the 0.2–0.31 μm spectral region and the Lyman-alpha (0.1216 μm) contribution to the solar irradiance. This combination of measurements will provide a rigorous test of the photochemical equilibrium theory of the mesospheric oxygen-hydrogen system, will determine what changes occur in the ozone distribution as a result of changes in the incoming solar radiation, and will detect changes that may occur as a result of meteorological disturbances.

    Notes: Summary A scale analysis is made of large scale eddying motions superimposed upon the state of mean rotation of spiral galaxies. By this means a balance relationship is derived between the fields of potential on the one hand and the horizontal eddy velocity on the other. This should provide a useful kinematical relationship for observational astronomy. It is obvious to the meteorological reader that the large scale irregular motions of galaxies are analogous to those which occur in our own atmosphere.

    Notes: Summary The theory of atmospheric tides is derived from the meteorological primitive equations by means of a perturbation expansion in Rossby number. Separation of the system for the first order variables into the standard horizontal and vertical structure equations of tidal theory is effected.

    Notes: Summary This paper supplements and extends previous discussions of galaxies in the light of meteorological theory by including explicitly the effect of random motions in a star gas. The conservation integrals for momentum and kinetic energy are formulated and the kinetic energy is further partitioned into kinetic energy of the large scale flows and kinetic energy of the random star motions. The kinetic energy of the random star motions is analogous to the internal energy in an ordinary gas and is transformed into kinetic energy of the fluid flow according to a law which is a generalization of the first law of thermodynamics as applied to fluids. It is possible to make more detailed division of the kinds of energy and their laws of transformation.

    Notes: Summary We continue the theoretical investigation of geostrophically balanced motions of a star gas in a rotating galaxy. The method of small perturbations is employed to derive a quasi geostrophic vorticity equation suitable for solving initial value problems for ‘slow’ galactic eddying motions. The results derived for this simple theoretical model are then generalized to obtain approximate geostrophic forecast equations suitable for study of nonlinear galactic motions over a whole disk galaxy. A simple discussion of the stability of our approximate vorticity equation is presented. It is expected that in the absence of rapid gravitational instabilities, actual eddy motions observed in spiral galaxies will be at least approximately of the type of motion discussed in this paper. The Rossby adjustment problem is investigated in this context.

    Notes: [Auszug] Human activity this century has increased the concentrations of atmospheric trace gases, which in turn has elevated global surface temperatures by blocking the escape of thermal infrared radiation. Natural climate variations are masking this temperature increase, but further additions of trace ...
