Effects of Internal Gravity Waves on Energy Budgets and the Vertical Transport of Angular Momentum Over Mountainous Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-resolution pictures obtained with a handheld camera during the earth-orbiting photographic mission of the Apollo 9 spacecraft provided a unique opportunity to map the areal extent of gravity waves over the southwestern ...
Large-Scale Atmospheric Circulation Characteristics as Evident from Ghost Balloon Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: From GHOST balloon data obtained over the Southern Hemisphere at the 200-mb level, phase velocities of cyclone waves were found to vary between 6.3 and 9.2 degrees of longitude per day. Spectrum analysis of the relative ...
Stationarity of Mesoscale Airflow in Mountainous Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Criteria for stationarity of turbulent atmospheric flow are examined for the mesoscale in a mountain valley in northeastern Utah. Data from four sequences of superpressure balloon flights are used. The study shows that the ...
