    Description: Hysteresis and wavenumber vacillation are studied numerically in a weakly stratified quasigeostrophic model. In general, the amplitude of the most unstable wave increases, as the flow becomes more unstable. When the wave becomes saturated, the next longer wave will grow at the expanse of the most unstable wave and becomes the dominant wave. However, once the longwave state is established, it may remain in that regime even as the instability is decreased beyond the threshold where it first developed, thus constituting a hysteresis loop. In a highly unstable case, the flow may not show a preference for any single wave. Instead, the dominant wave aperiodically varies among several long waves. This phenomenon is known as wavenumber vacillation. Hysteresis is further examined in terms of eddy heat flux. It is shown that total eddy heat flux increases as the flow becomes more unstable, but displays a sharp drop when transition to a longer wave occurs. However, in a longwave state, the heat flux always decreases with decreasing instability even pass the threshold when wave transition first occurs.

    Notes: Information is presented on those physical properties where measurement is greatly facilitated by thermal stability greater than previously known in polyoxymethylenes, and properties of a mechanical nature characteristic of high molecular weight polymeric materials. The high molecular weight polyoxymethylenes studied possess the characteristic properties of a semicrystalline material in the high molecular weight range. The melting point, stiffness, and tensile strength of these materials substantially exceed those for linear polyethylene, which suggests that the effective chain interactions are enhanced by ease of close packing of the chains. High density and high crystallinity are in accord with this picture.
