Momentum Flux of Convective Gravity Waves Derived from an Offline Gravity Wave Parameterization. Part II: Impacts on the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe characteristics of small-scale convective gravity waves (CGWs; horizontal wavelengths <100 km) and their contributions to the large-scale flow in the stratosphere, including the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO), ...
SOUTHTRAC-GW: Gravity Waves Meet Sudden Stratospheric Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Comparison between Gravity Wave Momentum Fluxes in Observations and Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: or the first time, a formal comparison is made between gravity wave momentum fluxes in models and those derived from observations. Although gravity waves occur over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales, the focus ...
