Abstract: This paper analyzes the spectra and spatiotemporal features of the large-scale inertia-gravity (IG) circulations in four analysis systems in the tropics. Of special interest is the Kelvin wave (KW), which represents between ...

Abstract: This paper presents the application of the normal-mode functions to diagnose the atmospheric energy spectra in terms of balanced and inertia?gravity (IG) contributions. A set of three-dimensional orthogonal normal modes ...

Abstract: his paper quantifies the linear mass?wind field balance and its temporal variability in the global data assimilation system Data Assimilation Research Testbed/Community Atmosphere Model (DART/CAM), which is based on the ...
