Abstract: Synoptic chart data for the Southern Hemisphere south of 30°S (excluding the Pacific sector) are examined for the winter of 1962 in relation to the frequency of cyclones and anticyclones at the 700- and 500-mb levels. ...

Abstract: The intensity and duration of strong wind events at three Australian stations in East Antarctica are discussed using four years of records. The longer term events are examined in relation to the pressure, temperature, wind ...

Abstract: Analyses of daily and multi-day satellite mosaic sequences are used to obtain evidence regarding the atmospheric circulation pattern over the South Pacific from the winter of 1971 to the summer of 1972?73. Interseason ...

Abstract: A set of 10 synoptic indices for the Southern Hemisphere is presented based on the first five years of numerical analysis by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology. The indices describe the characteristics and variability ...

Abstract: A description is given of an Indian Ocean cloud band oriented quasi-meridionally across the equator. The feature is some 3000 km in length and only 10?20 km in core width, but exhibiting more extensive blow-off cirrus. ...

Abstract: A description is given of a quasi-periodic variation averaging some 20?25 days in the westward motion of the mid-South Pacific cloud band as using 5-day averaged satellite imagery.

Abstract: An analysis is made of the geographical variations in the magnitude of, and the relation between, the ranges of monthly and seasonal mean temperatures for longer established stations over the Southern Hemisphere from the ...

Abstract: The computer-generated digital mosaics of daily cloud photographs obtained by the ESSA 3 satellite were studied for the Southern Hemisphere south of 40S for the period of the southern summer, December 1966 to February 1967. ...

Abstract: Satellite-observed cloud signatures associated with a large sample of mature and decaying depressions over middle and high southern latitudes are described in terms of a revision of an earlier classification Associated ...

Abstract: A classification scheme for cloud vortices recorded on hemispheric digital mosaics southward of 20S during a period of some 550 days is used to construct models based on observations of associated atmospheric structure. ...
