Earth Atmosphere: Oscillations

Scientific paper

A 48-yr integration was performed using the Geophysical Fluid dynamics Laboratory SKYHI troposphere - stratosphere - mesosphere GCM with an imposed zonal momentum forcing designed to produce a quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) in the tropical stratosphere. In response to this forcing, the model generates a QBO in the tropical circulation that includes some very realistic features, notably the asymmetry between the strength of the descending easterly and westerly shear zones, and the tendency for the initial westerly accelerations to appear quite narrowly confined to the equator.
