D'autres courant-jets existent mais ils sont saisonniers, c'est en particulier le cas des jets qui se développent durant la mousson indienne. Sur l'océan Indien, Findlater a découvert, au milieu des années 60, un courant-jet qui se développe dans les basses couches de l'atmosphère, vers 850 hPa(environ 1 500 m). Ces vents portent les noms de Jet Findlater, East African Low Level Jet ou Jet Somali. Ce courant-jet a une vitesse moyenne inférieure à celle des autres courant-jets(12-15m. s-1) [...] mais il assure plus de la moitié du transport des masses inter-hémisphères entre les Mascareignes et la péninsule Indienne, soit 7. 1010 kg. s-1 durant le mois de juillet [...] Après avoir atteint les côtes africaines et traversé la mer d’Arabie, il se scinde en deux branches, l'une divergeant vers le Sri Lanka, l'autre continuant jusqu'à atteindre l'Inde à la hauteur de Bombay. L'origine de ce jet est à chercher dans a divergence des hautes pressions du sud de l'océan Indien et la convergence vers les basses pressions de la mousson indienne, le relief de Madagascar guidant ce flux vers le nord [...] La figure 7 présente les différentes positions du jet de Somalie entre février et juillet. Ce jet est perceptible au nord de Madagascar presque toute l'année mais il n’ atteint les côtes africaines qu'au mois de mai. 1, record 29, French, - jet%20de%20Somalie

Atmospheric pressure is measured in two units, hectopascals (hPa) and inches of mercury (Hg). The hectopascal is the international unit of measure for atmospheric pressure and inches of mercury are used in the U.S. for aviation purposes. 7, record 30, English, - hectopascal

In the U.S., air pressure at the surface is reported in inches of mercury while air pressure aloft is reported in millibars, also known as hectopascals (hPa). Scientists, however, generally use pressures in hectopascals. In the rest of the world, measurements are usually given in hectopascals although you will sometimes see them in centimeters of mercury, especially on older barometers. The term "hectopascals" is replacing the term "millibars." 8, record 30, English, - hectopascal

An operational forecaster locates regions of upper level divergence by locating the divergence sector of a vorticity gradient near the LND (Level of Non-divergence). The LND is closest to the mandatory level of 500 mb, thus upper level vorticity is usually plotted on this prog. The LND is the general level that separates the low levels of the troposphere from the upper levels. Vorticity advection is best assessed near the LND. 2, record 37, English, - level%20of%20non%2Ddivergence
