A meteor radar system was installed at Amundsen-Scott South Pole station in 2001 and became fully operational in 2002. This radar has operated nearly continuously since and is providing horizontal wind measurements in four separate azimuth directions. This feature provides the ability to determine the zonal wavenumber and direction of propagation for the observed perturbations. With multiple years of observations we have the opportunity to investigate the coherent seasonal structure of the large scale observations over South Pole. These include the migrating diurnal and semidiurnal oscillations which are large during the summer months as well as both eastward and westward propagating planetary waves. Throughout the year short period (8-14) hour oscillations are present and have been associated with Lamb Waves. In this paper we present a spatial and temporal analysis of these planetary waves.
