                         indicates that stratospheric winds and El Nino-southern 
                         oscillation (ENSO) parameters evolve differently and probably have 
                         no relationship with each other. The sharp commencement of the 
                         1997-98 El Nino in February-March 1997 was not accompanied by any 
                         particular deviation from the general trend of the wind variation 
                         in those months. Spectral analysis for 1979 up to the present 
                         indicates that winds have only a quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) 
                         near 2.40 years as a prominent variation, whereas ENSO has main 
                         periodicities near 3.7 and 5.0 years and a small QBO near 2.50 
                         years, slightly but significantly different from the wind QBO.",
