It is shown that synoptic disturbances with periods from 30 to 92 days have space scales from about 250 to 1400 km and propagate in different directions at a velocity of 7-31 cm/s. Comparison of altimetry-derived characteristics of synoptic level disturbances with theoretical dispersion relations of low-frequency waves made it possible to identify them as barotropic and baroclinic Rossby waves and baroclinic topographic waves.
