- Abstract
The article presents a study on the climatology of the tropopause at southern extratropical latitudes. It uses Argentine operational rawinsonde data from 1968 to 1997. The study examines the tropopause annual cycles in areas along the sixty degrees west meridian including Resistencia, Comodoro Rivadavia, and Ezeiza. It found that Ezeiza showed tropopause behavior similar to the summers of Resistencia and the winters of Comodoro Rivadavia. The study also examines double tropopause events in the three sites. It also presents the concept of Extratropical Tropopause Layer.
