                         S{\~a}o Jos{\'e} dos Campos, Brazil (23° S, 46° W) with a lidar 
                         operated at 589 nm since 1993. The long-term knowledge of this 
                         temperature profile has allowed us to know its average climatology 
                         as well as the nighttime evolution. During the period of late 
                         September-early October, 2002 we observed profiles which differ 
                         considerably from the average for the same period in other years. 
                         Specially, a profile obtained on the night of October 2, 2002 
                         called our attention by presenting an unusual stratospheric 
                         inversion layer with a decrease of 8-10 K between 38 and 42 km. 
                         Subsequent analysis showed that this period coincided with an 
                         unprecedented major southern hemisphere stratospheric warming at 
                         high latitude. Analysis of additional SABER temperature data 
                         showed that inversion layers at the same altitude extends to a 
                         wide area at low latitude.",
