abstract = "During Sudden Stratospheric Warming (SSW) at high latitude on
northern hemisphere, planetary waves show upward as well as
equatorward propagation originating from winter mid-high
latitudes, which can produce significant forcing and to influence
the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) tropical dynamics
being able to reach low latitudes in the southern hemisphere. In
this study, we have investigated the meteor winds and planetary
waves behavior at Sao Joao do Cariri (7.4\◦S,
36.5\◦W) and Cachoeira Paulista (22.7\◦S,
45.0\◦W), Brazil, during Arctic SSW events. The behavior of
MLT winds over both sites is characterized by a westward change
rate in mid-January, but this change rate is increased during a
SSW major in the winter hemisphere, mainly at Sao Joao do Cariri.
These results point out a possible relationship between meteor
zonal wind at low latitudes and zonal wind and temperature at 10
hPa in the northern polar region. These relationships have been
interpreted as due to planetary waves breaking, which showed
upward as well as equatorward propagation originated from mid-high
latitudes. It can produce significant forcing and can also change
the tropical MLT dynamics in lower latitudes of the southern
hemisphere.",
