Short summary
The momentum forcing of the stratospheric quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) by equatorial waves is estimated using recent reanalysis data sets. The Kelvin wave produces primary forcing of the QBO in the easterly-to-westerly transition phase below 30hPa, whereas mesoscale gravity waves produce larger forcing than the Kelvin wave above 30hPa. Still, the recent reanalyses underestimate the forcing by the large-scale equatorial waves.
