Stokes Diffusion by Atmospheric Internal Gravity Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Owing to the stochastic action of Stokes drift induced by a spectrum of noninteracting gravity waves, a parcel of air subject to a spectrum of randomly superposed waves will be displaced, on average, an increasing distance ...
HRDI Observations of Mean Meridional Winds at Solstice
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High Resolution Doppler Imager (HRDI) measurements of daytime and nighttime winds at 95 km are used to deduce seasonally averaged Eulerian mean meridional winds during six solstice periods. These estimates are compared ...
