Interannual variability in stratospheric dynamics : interaction between the QBO and the extratropics

This thesis is concerned with interannual variability in the stratosphere, in particular the tropical oscillation called the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation (QBO) and its interaction with the extratropical circulation. A three dimensional mechanistic model is used to investigate interannual variability,...
