Waves in Pluto’s Upper Atmosphere
Observations of the 2007 March 18 occultation of the star P445.3 (2UCAC 25823784; R = 15.3) by Pluto were obtained at high time resolution at five sites across the western United States and reduced to produce light curves for each station using standard aperture photometry. Global models of Pluto’s upper atmosphere are fitted simultaneously to all resulting light curves. The results of these mo...
متن کاملNonlinear internal waves in the upper atmosphere
This paper considers the large-scale dynamics generated in the upper atmosphere by the destabilization of a linear internal gravity wave and its eventual restabilization through nonlinear processes into a coherent pattern. The assumption of a strongly dissipative medium is relevant to wave propagation in the thermosphere range above 100 km. A parametric instability analysis is carried out invol...
متن کاملAtmospheric Gravity Waves and Effects in the Upper Atmosphere Associated with Tsunamis
Tsunamis propagate at the surface of the deep ocean horizontal phase speeds of approximately 200 m/s, which is about two-thirds of the lower atmospheric sound speed. They have large horizontal wavelengths that are typically of a few hundred kilometers, and they remain coherent over large propagation distances. They also have large horizontal extents (sometimes a few thousand kilometers) paralle...
متن کاملPropagation of Acoustic - Gravity Waves in the Atmosphere
]Komogeneous wave guide theory is used to derive dispersion curves, vertical pressure distributions, and synthetic baregrams for atmospheric waves. A complicated mode structure is found involving both gravity and acoustic waves. Various models of the atmosphere are studied to explore seasonal and geographic effects on pulse propagation. The influence of different zones in the atmosphere on the ...
متن کاملSolution of propagation of acoustic-gravity waves in the atmosphere using finite difference method of order two
Investigating waves propagation’s equation in the atmosphere is one of the important and widely used issues in various sciences, which has attracted many researchers. A type of propagating waves is an acoustic-gravity wave. These type of waves have a lot of stationarity properties and can be propagate to a high altitude in the atmosphere. The equation of acoustic-gravity wave propagation is a h...
