  1. Non rotating planet

  2. Rotating planet

  3. Wind belts: symmetric case, and then land effects

  4. Monsoons

  5. Angular momentum Change in length of day time

  6. Wind as a function of latitude and height (Wells)

  7. Temperature as a function of latitude and height (Wells)

  8. Annual sea level pressure and winds Wallace and Hobbs

  9. Surface winds & precipitation Wallace and Hobbs

  10. Northern hemisphere Winter circulation

  11. Northern hemisphere Winter circulation

  12. Northern hemisphere Winter circulation

  13. Northern hemisphere - temperature difference from zonal average in lower troposphere. (0 to 5 km)

  14. Heat flux from surface to atmosphere (Winter) Wm-2

  15. Northern hemisphere precipitation (m/yr) m/yr

  16. Variability in pressure at ~ 8km (i.e., weather!) This is actually the difference between the daily averaged height of the 200mb pressure level and its 5-day running average

  17. Southern hemisphere winter circulation

  18. Southern hemisphere - temperature difference from zonal average in lower troposphere (0 to 5 km).

  19. Southern hemisphere: heat flux from surface to atmosphere (Winter) Wm-2

  20. Southern hemisphere winter precipitation (ish!) (myr-1)

  21. Southern hemisphere winter Variability in pressure at ~ 8km (i.e., weather!) This is actually the difference between the daily averaged height of the 200mb pressure level and its 5-day running average
