abstract = "Planetary wave (PW) associated dynamical variability in the
equatorial and extratropical middle atmosphere during the
September 2019 Southern hemisphere minor sudden stratospheric
warming (SSW) is investigated utilizing meteor radar wind
observations from S{\~a}o Jo{\~a}o do Cariri (7.4°S, 36.5°W) and
Cachoeira Paulista (22.7°S, 45°W) and reanalysis data. Signature
of the mesospheric warming in conjunction with the stratospheric
cooling is found at low latitudes. The strong westerly wind at low
latitudes decelerates notably near 65 km at the onset of the
warming episode, although no wind reversal is observed. The wind
spectra reveal a prevalent quasi-16-day wave (Q16DW) prior to the
SSW and existence of a quasi-6-day wave (Q6DW) after the warming
event. Possible existence of barotropic/baroclinic instability in
the low and mid latitude middle atmosphere may be responsible for
exciting the Q6DW. The traveling PW is primarily found to travel
westward corresponding to zonal wavenumber 1 and 2. Furthermore,
significant latitudinal mixing of airmass between the tropics and
high latitudes is evident in the potential vorticity map. The
Eliassen-Palm flux diagnosis shows the propagation of the Q6DW and
Q16DW from mid to low latitudes during the warming event.",
