This project will investigate the physical mechanisms for                  the observed behavior of the planetary waves in the Southern                    Hemisphere.   The work will focus on the quasi-stationary and                   traveling components of zonal wave numbers 1 and 2.  These                      components, which are particularly important during the southern                spring, differ significantly from their Northern Hemisphere                     counterparts.  Simple dynamical as well as general circulation                  models (the UCLA-GCM) will be used in the investigation.                        Sensitivity studies to understand the influence of different                    forcing mechanisms on the generation of the planetary waves will                be carried out.  This work will enhance our basic understanding                 of the general circulation of the atmosphere.
