利用所有可用的无线电探空仪、火箭探空仪和卫星数据,阐明了直到中层顶的大气气候学。平流层和中间层温度的季节变化将被描述,主要是从月平均图。重点将放在纵向和半球的差异。在冬季,由于平流层极涡的发展,平流层的风主要来自西方,对流层的行星波穿透平流层,甚至在北方冬季进入中间层。这导致了两个半球的纵向差异,尽管这种影响在北方半球更强。两个半球冬季之间的差异特别大,因为两个半球的平流层仲冬变暖是不同的。因此,从冬季到夏季环流的转变也不同地演变。在夏季,南部的平流层比北方温暖,这是因为地球轨道的椭圆性导致的太阳对臭氧加热的差异。
The use of all available radiosonde, rocketsonde and satellite data, has elucidated the climatology of the atmosphere up to the mesopause. The seasonal variation of the temperature in the stratosphere and mesosphere will be described, mainly from monthly mean maps. Emphasis will be given to longitudinal and hemispheric differences. During the winter season when, owing to the development of the cold stratospheric polar vortex, the winds in the stratosphere are mainly from the west, the planetary waves of the troposphere penetrate into the stratosphere, and even into the mesosphere during the northern winter. This results in longitudinal differences over both hemispheres, though the effect is stronger over the Northern Hemisphere. The hemispheric differences are particularly large between the winters, as the stratospheric midwinter warmings are different over both hemispheres. As a consequence, the transition from the winter to the sum m er circulation also evolves differently. During summer, the southern stratosphere is warmer than the northern because of the difference in solar heating of ozone due to the ellipticity of the Earth ’s orbit.
