Investigation of inertia-gravity waves in the upper troposphere/ lower stratosphere over Northern Germany observed with collocated VHF/UHF radars
A case study to investigate the properties of inertia-gravity waves in the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere has been carried out over Northern Germany during the occurrence of an upper tropospheric jet in connection with a poleward Rossby wave breaking event from 17– 19 December 1999. The investigations are based on the evaluation of continuous radar measurements with the OSWIN VHF radar at...
متن کاملInertia gravity waves in the upper troposphere during the MaCWAVE winter campaign – Part I: Observations with collocated radars
During the MaCWAVE campaign, combined rocket, radiosonde and ground-based measurements have been performed at the Norwegian Andøya Rocket Range (ARR) near Andenes and the Swedish Rocket Range (ESRANGE) near Kiruna in January 2003 to study gravity waves in the vicinity of the Scandinavian mountain ridge. The investigations presented here are mainly based on the evaluation of continuous radar mea...

متن کاملWeak turbulence of short equatorial waves
We derive a normal form of nonlinear equations for short equatorial waves considered in the framework of the rotating shallow water model. We show dynamical splitting of equatorial Rossby and inertia-gravity waves. We derive an effective Hamiltonian for the short inertia-gravity waves and consider their kinetics using the weak turbulence approach. Stationary power-law energy spectra are obtaine...
متن کاملValidation of the CUTLASS HF radar gravity wave observing capability using EISCAT CP-1 data
Quasi-periodic ̄uctuations in the returned ground-scatter power from the SuperDARN HF radars have been linked to the passage of medium-scale gravity waves. We have applied a technique that extracts the ®rst radar range returns from the F-region to study the spatial extent and characteristics of these waves in the CUTLASS ®eld-of-view. Some ray tracing was carried out to test the applicability o...
