Atmospheric gravity waves due to the Tohoku-Oki tsunami observed in the thermosphere by GOCE [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres, 2014
International audienceOceanic tsunami waves couple with atmospheric gravity waves, as previously observedthrough ionospheric and airglow perturbations. Aerodynamic velocities and density variations are computed from Gravity Field and Steady-State Ocean ...

ON GRAVITY WAVES IN THE ATMOSPHERE

Journal of Meteorology, 1954
Abstract Seven times in a year's continuous observations, marked oscillations with periods from 5 to 15 minutes were simultaneously recorded on a barograph and a damped anemometer located at La Jolla, California. The oscillations often followed a reversal of the land- and sea-breeze regime, and they were sometimes preceded by a pressure pulse ...

Atmospheric gravity waves and the 'Rissaga' phenomenon

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 1991
AbstractThe atmospheric forcing of large sea‐level oscillations (up to 1.5 m amplitude with about a 10 min period) in some bays and inlets of the Balearic Islands is described using simultaneous measurements of pressure and sea‐level elevation in the port of Ciutadella (at the end of a large and narrow inlet) during 5–7 July 1989.

The viscous damping of atmospheric gravity waves

Canadian Journal of Physics, 1963
Dissipation produced by viscous damping and thermal conduction is important in the study of atmospheric gravity waves, which are themselves important in a study of "irregular" motions in the upper atmosphere. The mathematics of this damping is considered in some detail here, and charts are given to assess the effects of viscous damping and thermal ...

Gravity Waves in the Atmosphere

Nature, 1972
Atmospheric gravity waves similar to waves that occur on the surface of a body of water have been known since the nineteenth century, but their significance for the study of atmospheric dynamics has been realized only in the past ten years.

Gravity waves in the atmosphere

Archiv für Meteorologie, Geophysik und Bioklimatologie Serie A, 1951
Mathematical discussion is restricted to gravity waves of period short enough for the earth's rotation to be neglected, propagated horizontally through air whose horizontal velocity and static stability vary with height in the layers near the ground.
