Scientific paper

A two-dimensional zonal wind model has been developed by solving basic wind equations under quasi-geostrophic and quasi-hydrostatic approximations. A realistic value of mean Kelvin wave flux observed experimentally is used to reproduce the westerly phase of semi-annual oscillation (SAO) in the model. The computed winds are qualitatively in good agreement with the observations. Further efforts to incorporate quasi-biennial oscillation by way of model refinement are underway.
