摘 要: | Based on the 1979 FGGE Level III b data, calculation is made of the transfer of sensible and latent heat and momentum due to a quasi-40-day periodic oscillation (QDPO) on a cross-equatorial meridional vertical cross-section, and analysis is done of the characteristics of the transfer at all phases of QDPO, with the following results obtained:1) During the monsoon's QDPO activation and break phases, a strong transfer of sensible heat to the SH is felt in the upper troposphere over the Asian monsoon region; the conversion of perturbation effective potential into its kinetic energy attains its maximum at 500-300 hPa (15°N), serving as the source of kinetic energy for the quasi-40-day periodic perturbation; an intense transfer of potential energy is found above 200 hPa from the monsoon area to the SH to maintain the QDPO at the tropical latitudes;2) During the QDPO activation-break (and reverse) transitional phase the conversion of perturbation effective potential into kinetic energy reaches its maximum in
