AbstractA Search for Free Rossby Waves and for van Loon's Temperature Variations in the Southern Hemisphere Stratosphere. by Roland A. Madden, NCAR Thirty years ago, Harry van Loon published a paper describing out-of-phase temperature variations at middle and high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere stratosphere (van Loon teal. 1975). They are a regular feature there, and their typical time scale is one to three weeks. It has been argued that at least some of these variations can be explained by similar variations in horizontal heat transport from middle to high latitudes which result from the interference of forced, stationary waves and free, traveling Rossby waves (Madden and Labitzke, 1981). If this interpretation is correct, one might expect similar variations in the Southern Hemisphere stratosphere since the free Rossby waves are global modes. Variations are smaller in the Southern Hemisphere(Randel and Newman, 1998), but large oscillations in temperature gradient and eddy heat transport do occur occasionally, and good examples are those during the southern winter of 2002 (J. Atmos.Sci., March 2005). Those particular oscillations have been connected to the interaction between a stationary wave-1 and an eastward traveling wave-2. Free Rossby waves of large scale such as wave-2 should move westward so this latter wave is not a free Rossby wave. Indeed the predominant propagation of large-scale waves in the Southern Hemisphere stratosphere is eastward (e.g. Randel and Newman, 1998), although there is some evidence based on Southern Hemisphere data alone (as opposed to projections of global data) for westward propagating free Rossby waves (e.g. Rodgers, 1976; Mechoso and Hartmann, 1982; Hirota and Hirooka, 1984). To learn if the interference of forced, stationary waves and free, traveling Rossby waves as proposed for Northern Hemisphere oscillations may play a role in some Southern Hemisphere stratospheric ones, we search for a Southern Hemisphere manifestation of the waves and for resulting temperature variations of the van Loon type.
