Suppression of Stationary Planetary Waves by Internal Gravity Waves in the Mesosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The suppression of stationary planetary waves by internal gravity waves in the mesosphere is treated using a quasi-geostrophic model on a midlatitude beta-plane. The drag forces due to internal gravity waves are parameterized ...
Solar Semidiurnal Tide in the Dusty Atmosphere of Mars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Vertical coupling due to the solar semidiurnal tide in Mars's atmosphere, and effects on zonal mean temperature and wind structures, are investigated using a numerical model. The model provides self-consistent solutions ...
The Roles of Equatorial Trapped Waves and Internal Inertia–Gravity Waves in Driving the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation. Part I: Zonal Mean Wave Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The roles of equatorial trapped waves (EQWs) and internal inertia?gravity waves in driving the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) are investigated using a high-resolution atmospheric general circulation model with T213L256 ...
The Roles of Equatorial Trapped Waves and Internal Inertia–Gravity Waves in Driving the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation. Part II: Three-Dimensional Distribution of Wave Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three-dimensional wave forcing of simulated quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) is investigated using a high-resolution atmospheric general circulation model with T213L256 resolution (60-km horizontal and 300-m vertical ...
