Days of reversed equatorial electrojet were identified at Trivandrum, India, and, in order to seek a global wind change in the dynamo region responsible for these events, upper atmosphere winds at a height of 99 km at Saskatoon, Canada, were examined. During northern winter, and also in April and September, the reversed electrojets were accompanied by reversals of the eastward wind at Saskatoon. The winter events generally occurred during a stratwarm. No changes in the winds were detected during summer reversed electrojets. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1996
