THE GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION AND SEASONAL VARIATION OF THE SEMIDIURNAL PRESSURE OSCILLATION IN HIGH LATITUDES

摘要

The amplitudes and phases of the semidiurnal pressure wave have been computed for sixteen polar stations. The data were analyzed to obtain a picture of the geographical and seasonal variation of this oscillation in the polar regions. A simple expression is given for the geographical distribution of the annual mean of the standing semidiurnal pressure oscillation in polar latitudes.
