The variations of the atmospheric angular momentum were investigated (Sidorenkov, 1976). Using the climatic cross-sections of the zonal wind, the values of the relative angular momentum of the atmosphere, h, were calculated for each month. The variations of h during the year are shown in Figure 1, where curve 1 illustrates the sum of h for the entire atmosphere, and curves 2 and 3 illustrate h for the atmospheres of the northern and southern hemispheres respectively.
