Abstract
Computations for the northward local eddy flux of heat are presented for twelve Indian stations, for a period of one year. Over India the local eddy flux term appears to contribute little towards the total flux required by the hemispheric radiative imbalance. The seasonal changes of the local eddy flux of latent heat are related to the monsoon pattern.

Abstract
An observational analysis is made of the magnitudes of individual terms in the potential vorticity equation applied to the normal January and July maps for the Northern Hemisphere. From the measurements along 45N an estimate is made of the total “forcing function” for the asymmetric disturbances. Cross sections along 30, 45, and 6ON of the mean meridional velocity and mean temperature and hemispheric distributions of a measure of the normal static stability are also shown.
