We present in this paper the first high resolution analysis of wind shears and temperature gradient measured over 25 m in the low stratosphere. Their power spectral densities deduced by two different methods show that for vertical wavelengths greater than 500 m the behaviors of the temperature and vertical velocity flucutating field are significantly different from the saturated wave model predictions. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1989
