Abstract: All available meteorological rocket soundings through the summer of 1966 are harmonically analyzed to obtain the amplitude and phase of the semidiurnal variation of the meridional wind component in summer for stations located near 30° and 37°N and of the zonal wind component in summer for the stations near 30°N. The results support the earlier finding that a phase reversal occurs at a height of 45?50 km rather than at the theoretically predicted height of 25?30 km. It is suggested that the difference between observation and theory may be attributed to the neglect of the basic wind structure in the theoretical calculation.
