摘要
Variability on scales of 200 km or less in the lower stratosphere is examined using potential temperature data collected during the AASE campaign. Enhanced variability is found over regions containing topography presumably due to gravity waves. The effect of gravity wave critical levels on topographically induced variability is examined. A significant reduction in variability is found when a critical level is present. Copyright 1990 by the American Geophysical Union.
