abstract = {Equatorial planetary scale wave modes such as Kelvin waves
or Rossby-gravity waves are excited by convective processes
in the troposphere. In this paper an analysis for these and
other equatorial wave modes is carried out with special
focus on the stratosphere using temperature data from the
SABER satellite instrument as well as ECMWF temperatures.
Space-time spectra of symmetric and antisymmetric spectral
power are derived to separate the different equatorial wave
types and the contribution of gravity waves is determined
from the spectral background of the space-time spectra.Both
gravity waves and equatorial planetary scale wave modes are
main drivers of the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) in the
stratosphere. Temperature variances attributed to the
different wave types are calculated for the period from
February 2002 until March 2006 and compared to previous
findings. A comparison between SABER and ECMWF wave analyses
shows that in the lower stratosphere SABER and ECMWF spectra
and temperature variances agree remarkably well while in the
upper stratosphere ECMWF tends to overestimate Kelvin wave
components. Gravity wave variances are partly reproduced by
ECMWF but have a significant low-bias. For the examples of a
QBO westerly phase (October-December 2004) and a QBO
easterly phase (November/December 2005, period of the
SCOUT-O3 tropical aircraft campaign in Darwin/Australia) in
the lower stratosphere we find qualitatively good agreement
between SABER and ECMWF in the longitude-time distribution
of Kelvin, Rossby (n=1), and Rossby-gravity waves.},
