Abstract

In this part, the temporal evolution and interaction across the equator of 30–50 day oscillation in the atmosphere are investigated further. The annual variation of 30–50 day oscillation is quite obvious in the mid-high latitudes. In the tropical atmosphere, the obvious interannual variation is an important property for temporal evolution of 30–50 day oscillation. The low-frequency wavetrain across the equator over the central Pacific and central Atlantic area, the movement of the long-lived low-frequency system across the equator and the meridional wind component across the equator will obviously show the interaction of 30–50 day oscillation in the atmosphere across the equator.
