Abstract

Vertical variations of divergent and rotational motions are presented for 2-month averages of the 1979 Global Weather Experiment for a latitude belt extending from 60°N to 60°S. The sensitivity of these vertical structures to analysis techniques is examined for divergent and rotational motions separately. Divergent motions are linked to tropical convection and the extent to which observed rotational motions may be interpreted as a response to diabatic heating is discussed.
