One of the principal reasons for using the transformed Eulerian-mean formalism as a tool for diagnostic studies of the stratosphere is that it should be closer to the fundamental Lagrangian-mean description of the atmosphere than is the standard Eulerian-mean formalism. The wave 2 major warming of February 1979 and the wave 1 major warming of February 1980 are considered. It appears that a high latitude jet core may be a necessary precondition for a major warming and that the existence of such a jet can arise from the decay of an earlier warming pulse. It is pointed out that enhanced high latitude winds can arise from the convergence of wave activity in mid-latitudes that reverses the mid-latitude and enhances the high latitude thermal gradient.
