             abstract = "Correlation coefficients between the meridional wind and zonal 
                         wind and meridional wind and temperature measure the efficiencies 
                         of eddy transports of momentum and heat , respectively. 
                         efficiencies are calculated in terms of these correlation 
                         coefficientes for the major warming event of January 1977. It is 
                         found that the eddies are more efficient in transporting heat than 
                         in transporting momentum. Further, the efficiency of heat 
                         transport increased substantially before the meridional 
                         temperature gradient reversed. Increase of efficiency in heat 
                         transport is found to be related to the increased westward tilt of 
                         a wave in the height field. Since this tilt is known to be 
                         associated with vertical propagation of wave energy , interesting 
                         connections are infrarred between the efficienciesof eddy 
                         transports, wave structure and energectics during a stratospheric
