Loops of November 2014 at both troposphere and stratosphere levels.
Loops related to the January 2013 SSW

- The evolution of the 400 hPa, 70 hPa and 10 hPa heights and potential temperature from 10 Decmber 2012 - 18 January 2013 via the GFS analysis.
- The 1-day averaged Northern Hemispehre EP flux from the ERA-I reanalysis from 1 November 2012 - 31 March 2013. (Maps from the Stratospheric Network for the Assesment of Predictability SNAP.)
Loops of the 2013-14 winter stratospheric variability
- A vertical cross section along 60N of the departure from zonal mean heights along with the zonal mean height anomolies at 10, 50, 100, 500 and 850 hPa, from 16 November 2013 to 31 March 2014.
- The temperature and height of the 10, 70 and 400 hPa levels between 7 December 2013 and 7 January 2013.
