Abstract: The kinetic energy budget and dissipation are studied in their various partitionings, using daily aerological (wind and geopotential) data from the network over North America for six months. The total kinetic energy ...

Abstract: The spectral energetics of the general circulation are presented for the entire FGGE year based on the GFDL analyses of FGGE observations. The global energy balance and those of the Northern and Southern hemispheres show ...

Abstract: The design of an optimized computation scheme for kinematic vertical motion fields with an upper air network is discussed with a scheme that incorporates 14 degrees of optimization in the evaluation of divergence. The ...

Abstract: The latitude-height distributions of the kinetic energy generation and dissipation over North America are presented in a series of cross sections from 25° to 70° N, and from the surface to the 50-mb level. The generation ...

Abstract: The diurnal variation and long-term variation of the kinetic energy generation and dissipation are investigated with the wind and geopotential data observed twice a day at 00 and 12 gmt over North America during a 5-yr. ...

Abstract: The vertical distribution and seasonal variation of the kinetic energy balance of the atmosphere are studied. From 11 months' daily wind and geopotential data during 1962 and 1963 over North America, the generation due to ...

Abstract: This is an attempt to employ a pertinent boundary layer model and proper frictional parameters in the numerical analysis of the angular momentum budget of the atmosphere. The mean zonal surface stress due to friction is ...

Abstract: Various aspects of our studies of the kinetic energy balance are discussed, using an improved scheme of computing the horizontal and vertical transports of the kinetic energy with the observed wind and geopotential data ...
