## Abstract The characteristics of the temperature oscillation associated with the recently discovered 26‐month oscillation of the zonal wind component in the equatorial stratosphere are inferred from the thermal wind relationship. Computations based on actual wind data predict an amplitude of 2Β·5Β°

## Abstract A series of radiosonde flights over Laverton, Victoria (38Β°S), is found to have sufficient vertical (100m) and temporal (3 h) resolution, and sufficient length (28 days) to detect inertial waves. Fourier analysis shows that in the stratosphere there is a strong anticyclonic rotation of

## Abstract During a routine instrumentation flight check in the lower stratosphere periodic variations of temperature and winds were observed. It is deduced that these variations are gravity waves which appear to be associated with a narrow frontal zone separating regions with different potential
