QBO period variation caused by:
• Planetary wave induced equatorial heating rate
• QBO induced circulation• Descent rate of critical line (westerly regular
and faster than easterly )• Year-to-year variability in the amplitude of
wave forcing• SAO above 30 km (Gray and Pyle, 1989)

Case without PW: regular downward propagation of easterly and westerly phase regimes.Period:~20 month
Case with PW:leads to a stalling of more than one year in the easterly wind downwelling
Shear zone ~ 50 hPa
