UARS MLS Seasonal Mean GW Variances in March-May
UARS MLS observed stratospheric
gravity wave variances, at altitudes ~28, 33, 38, 43, 48, 53, 61, and 80 km (channels 1-8).
The 4-point MLS limb-scan data averaged on 10 degree by 5 degree longitude-latitude grids
during March-April-May of 1991-1994 are used to make this map.
The instrument noise has been removed and no data are at latitudes higher than 80N/80S.
