Resumen:
The ratio R between the spectral kinetic and potential
energies as a function of vertical wavenumber has
beenc alculatedf rom high-resolutiond ata obtainedw ith
open stratospheric balloons near the Andes Mountains.
Two segments of altitude in the troposphere and stratosphere
respectively were analyzed. The ratio values are
larger in ? both the troposphere and stratosphere than
those predicted from the separability of wavenumber
and frequency spectra. A comparison was made with
previouss tatistical resultsf rom soundingso ver fiat terrain
extendingu p to logm (cy/m) --2.0. Our calculations
prolong this interval to-2.0 < log m
