2 What dynamical effect does the stratosphere have on the troposphere?
3 What dynamical effect does the stratosphere have on the troposphere? What does the question mean?
4 What dynamical effect does the stratosphere have on the troposphere? What does the question mean? o How does the troposphere react to a reasonable change in the stratospheric state?
5 What dynamical effect does the stratosphere have on the troposphere? What does the question mean? o How does the troposphere react to a reasonable change in the stratospheric state? What are the mechanisms?
6 What dynamical effect does the stratosphere have on the troposphere? What does the question mean? o How does the troposphere react to a reasonable change in the stratospheric state? What are the mechanisms? o The stratosphere responds to the upwelling EP flux

8 What dynamical effect does the stratosphere have on the troposphere? What does the question mean? o How does the troposphere react to a reasonable change in the stratospheric state? What are the mechanisms? o The stratosphere responds to the upwelling EP flux What determines the EP flux into the stratosphere?
9 What dynamical effect does the stratosphere have on the troposphere? Is there any unambiguous observational evidence for such an effect and how could it be identified?

52 Short-term (intraseasonal) Conclusions Not clear what effect there is Annular modes appear to be controlled by synoptic scale eddies; any effect on annular modes (unless coincidental) requires an impact on tropospheric eddy, mean flow interaction Even if the stratosphere has little or no causal effect, stratospheric behavior may be useful in forecasting for the troposphere by virtue of the rapid stratospheric response

The capacity of the stratosphere to absorb wave activity is finite
