Abstract: The Lagrangian ?parcel method? of stability analysis is systematically presented and rendered rigorous in its application to nondivergent flow on a plane with constant Coriolis parameter. The method is applied in detail ...

Abstract: Three relaxation schema are applied to Poisson equations with known solutions. It is found that the schema using larger stencils are not only, as might he expected, significantly more accurate, but also significantly more ...

Abstract: Extensive observations were made on aircraft flights in the marine layer over the Pacific Ocean off the coast of southern California. We interpret some of the cloud patterns as convective and some as gravity wave phenomena. ...

Abstract: Three-dimensional internal trapped lee wave modes produced by an isolated obstacle in a stratified fluid are shown to have dynamics analogous to surface ship waves on water of finite depth. Two models which allow for ...

Abstract: Open boundaries are desirable when the region of interest of a computation is a localized area of a much larger domain. Boundary conditions are developed for the linear storm-surge equations (without Coriolis effects) that ...

Abstract: The three-dimensional structure of lee waves is investigated using a combination of linear analysis and numerical simulation. The forcings are represented by flow over a single wave (monochromatic) in the along-stream ...

Abstract: An analytical model is presented that accommodates nonhydrostatic shearing stratified flow over an obstacle, and that can be modified to include a superposed stratosphere with constant wind and higher stability. A simulation ...

Abstract: As is well known, the linear dynamic equations for gravity-inertia waves are characterized by three singular levels, one being the critical level at which flow speed and wave speed are equal, and the other two at which the ...

Abstract: When a gravity?inertia wave in two dimensions is generated by flow over a stationary boundary above the critical level, its vertical propagation will depend on whether it encounters the singular level at which kU/f is equal ...
