Table 1.

Poleward eddy heat and momentum fluxes at 100 hPa, area-averaged over the latitude belts from 45°N to the pole during the winter season for zonal wavenumbers 1 and 2

DJF High Low Hi-Lo
Heat 1 115 94 145 −50
Heat 2 69 109 48 61
Momentum 1 −47 −29 −113 84
Momentum 2 −45 101 −75 176

First column is the seasonal mean for all data (DJF), followed by the 1.5 standard deviation high composite (High), low composite (Low), and the difference between them (Hi-Lo). Units are °K⋅ms−1 for heat flux and m2⋅s−2 for momentum flux.
