    Description: Results are presented for a periodic analysis of atmospheric temperature variations at heights of from 20 to 60 km between 80 deg N and 40 deg S. The analysis is based on Meteorological Rocket Network temperatures not corrected for solar radiation or aliasing by the diurnal tide, and the frequencies examined include the long-term mean, the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO), and the first six harmonics of the annual wave. Amplitudes are plotted for the long-term mean and QBO as well as for the annual, semiannual, and terannual components. The results show two distinct annual oscillations (the high-latitude one and another above the tropical stratopause) and a polar semiannual wave with two centers of large amplitude that are 90 deg out of phase and separated by a zone of minimum amplitude near 45 km.

    Description: The recently described polar semiannual oscillations in zonal wind can explain midwinter weakening of the polar winter vortex and the relatively short stratospheric and mesospheric summer easterlies. This explanation implies that stratospheric sudden warmings may be caused or affected by the polar semiannual oscillation. Two potential physical mechanisms (not mutually exclusive) for the oscillation are presented: planetary wave action and changes in the radiation field. Radiation absorption changes are suggested to result from changes in ozone concentration during magnetic storms. Contours of amplitude of both the polar and tropical semiannual wind oscillations are more nearly congruent with geomagnetic than with geographic latitude.

    Description: This paper describes the theoretical analysis that is required to infer, from polarimeter measurements of skylight, the size distribution, refractive index and abundance of particulates in the atmosphere. To illustrate the viability of the method, some data obtained at UCLA is analyzed and the atmospheric parameters are derived. The explicit demonstration of the redundancy in the description of aerosol distributions suggests that radiation field measurements will not uniquely determine the modal radius of the size distribution. In spite of this nonuniqueness information useful to heat budget calculations can be derived.

    Description: The EOLE data were obtained on the basis of the interrogation of nearly 500 constant density balloons by a satellite in a 50 deg inclined orbit with an orbital time of about 100 min. The isosteric surface in which the balloons operated closely approximates the 200-mb isobaric surface. Ambient temperature and pressure were determined by instruments. Lagrangian velocities were calculated from balloon displacements between successive satellite orbits. The properties of the EOLE data are considered together with averaging schemes and data problems, time sections, and questions of hemispheric energetics.

    Description: Aircraft, Skylab, NOAA-2, ATS-3, and NIMBUS-5 recently obtained a variety of measurements of Pacific hurricane Ava. These measurements are unusually broad in scope and include satellite observed passive microwave emissivities at 13.9 and 19.5 GHz, active microwave scattering cross-sections at 13.9 GHz, and near infrared and visible images. Essentially simultaneous aircraft measurements of wind speed, waves, whitecaps, 1.4 and 13-15 GHz passive microwave emissivities, 1.4 GHz active microwave images, sea surface temperatures, pressure fields, and aerosol size distributions were also obtained. A brief description of sensors and platforms is presented along with some in-depth details of results obtained.

    Description: Nimbus-E Microwave Spectrometer (NEMS) data are analyzed, especially those obtained from the 53.65, 54.9, and 58.8 GHz channels, corresponding to sensing at 4, 11, and 18 km respectively. The observations permit highly precise horizontal temperature profiles to be established and are hardly affected by clouds. The sensings of the 54.9 GHz channel unambiguously delineate wave structure on the equator. Horizontal water vapor profiles are derived from the 22.235 and 31.4 GHz channel data.
