description abstractThe flow at 500 mb. is compared with that at 100 mb. With the exception of the polar vortex, the patterns at the two levels tend to show a distinct similarity, with the major exception that small-scale features at 500 mb. are not present at 100 mb. In middle latitudes, the wind speeds at the two levels are of the same order of magnitude, with a systematic excess of the 100-mb. speeds over the 500-mb. speeds at latitudes 30° and farther south. In the region of the polar vortex, heights at the two levels are still well correlated. Variations in height over long periods tend to be much larger at 100 mb. than at 500 mb. Similarly, the winds at 100 mb. are much stronger than those at 500 mb.
