## Abstract A new attempt is made to determine the mean meridional wind components of the Northern Hemisphere at different levels for the winter season DecemberβFebruary, and to compute the mean mass circulation as a function of latitude. The computation shows the existence of a strong βdirectβ Had

## Abstract Simple indices of the zonal and meridional surface circulation have been obtained for the months of the winter half year. The strength of the zonal circulation appears to be little related to the poleward flux of heat in this period. An index of the meridional circulation, measuring the
## Abstract Charts are presented showing the flux of water vapour due to the mean winds, based on the mean distribution of water vapour and the mean geostrophic winds, in January and July, over an area comprising most of the Northern Hemisphere. There is evidence that this flux approximates fairly
