CIRCULATION DISTURBANCES BETWEEN 25 AND 70 KM ASSOCIATED WITH THE SUDDEN WARMING OF 1963,
Abstract
Time-height cross sections constructed from meteorological rocket data were studied to determine the time and height extent of the sudden warming over several stations. Circulation changes were evident at subtropical as well as subpolar stations. Wallops Island data indicated that the major region of warm air moved east and north of the station. There were indications that the warming extended above 50 km and that its maximum intensity was near 40 km. Circulation features observed near 30 km were found to retain their identity above 50 km.
