stratospheric oscillation
Traveling wave in the stratosphere with a period of between four and five days and forced by diabatic heating in the troposphere.
The diabatic forcing is manifested as cloud-brightness oscillations that are particularly prominent at 5°–10°N in the northern winter, indicating that they are oscillations in the intertropical convergence zone.
