      abstract     = {Zonal asymmetries axe frequently seen in stratospheric
                      temperature or trace gas fields as surf zones, streamers,
                      filaments etc. They axe also seen as very small-scale
                      fluctuations, the intensity of which varies with longitude.
                      Similar structures might be expected in the mesosphere as
                      well, and several examples have recently been found. CRISTA
                      1 large-scale data are presented that indicate a surf zone
                      in the middle mesosphere at the beginning of winter. Very
                      small-scale data are shown from the CRISTA 2 mission.
                      Mesospheric variability is found to be high at all
                      altitudes, latitudes, and longitudes. There axe considerable
                      non-zonal structures in these fluctuations. (The duration of
                      the Crista missions was about one week each.)Zonal
                      asymmetries have been known for a long time from comparisons
                      of ground stations measuring the same parameter in the
                      mesosphere / lower thermosphere As an example, upper
                      mesosphere temperatures derived from OH* emissions are
                      compaxed here for Wuppertal and Moscow (Zvenigorod), which
                      are about 2000 km apart. A systematic and substantial
                      difference in temperature is obtained, with higher
                      temperatures at Wuppertal than at Moscow. The difference
                      appears to follow the solar cycle: it is small at solar
                      maximum and large (up to 28 K) at solar minimum. The reason
                      for this surprising behavior is as yet unknown.The Moscow
                      and Wuppertal temperatures have also been analyzed for
                      long-term trends: a trend discrepancy between the two
                      stations is not seen in the data interval common to the two
                      stations. (C) 2003 COSPAR. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All
