Seasonal Influence of the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation on Stratospheric Jets and Rossby Wave Breaking
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The influence of the stratospheric quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) on the polar night jets (PNJs), subtropical easterly jets (SEJs), and associated Rossby wave breaking (RWB) is investigated using global meteorological ...
A Seasonal Climatology of Rossby Wave Breaking in the 320–2000-K Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Differential advection in Rossby waves can lead to potential vorticity (PV; P) contours on isentropic surfaces folding over in latitude (Py < 0) in a process called Rossby wave breaking (RWB). Exploring the properties of ...
