Abstract
It is demonstrated that diurnal and semiβdiurnal variations of wind occur in the lower stratosphere. These oscillations appear to be associated with the solar tides. The stratospheric semiβdiurnal oscillation of wind is in phase with, and of comparable magnitude to, the surface semiβdiurnal oscillation of wind. In the stratosphere, the diurnal oscillation is found to be of similar magnitude to the semiβdiurnal oscillation.

Using rocketsonde-derived data for 17 years (1969-1985) the relationship between the Southern Oscillation (SO), sea surface temperature (SST) and temperature at the northern upper stratosphere-middle mesosphere is investigated. In the upper stratosphere-middle mesosphere region a strong correlation
