Analysisof the three-dimensional Eliassen-Palm fluxes indicated the existence of the<br />

“stratospheric bridge” forming by the upward pl<strong>an</strong>etary wave propagation from the<br />

troposphere over northern Eurasia in early winter <strong>an</strong>d the downward wave signal from the<br />

stratosphere over North Atl<strong>an</strong>tic in late winter. It is shown that the causesof the decadal<br />

violation of the Holton-T<strong>an</strong> relationship of the extra-tropical stratospheric circulation with the<br />

equatorial quasi-biennial oscillation <strong>an</strong>d the 11-year solar cycle impact c<strong>an</strong> be associated with<br />

decadal ch<strong>an</strong>ges of the “stratospheric bridge” modulation in J<strong>an</strong>uary-February. The simple<br />

mech<strong>an</strong>ism explaining the link of the eddy energy exch<strong>an</strong>ge between the troposphere <strong>an</strong>d<br />

stratosphere with the stratospheric circulation on the inter<strong>an</strong>nual <strong>an</strong>d decadal timescales is<br />

proposed.
