Propagation paths and source distributions of resolved gravity waves in ECMWF-IFS analysis fields around the southern polar night jet [PDF]
In the southern winter polar stratosphere, the distribution of gravity wave momentum flux in many state-of-the-art climate simulations is inconsistent with long-time satellite and superpressure balloon observations around 60∘ S.

Parasitic Capillary Waves on Small-Amplitude Gravity Waves with a Linear Shear Current
This paper describes a numerical investigation of ripples generated on the front face of deep-water gravity waves progressing on a vertically sheared current with the linearly changing horizontal velocity distribution, namely parasitic capillary waves ...

The ocean's interior is filled with waves that can only exist because the ocean is vertically stratified in temperature and salinity. Like waves at the ocean surface, internal waves are restored by gravity. These internal gravity waves are generated by wind, tides, and low-frequency flows.

Balanced dynamics in the Tropics [PDF]
For the shallow-water equations on an equatorial beta plane, the properties of low-frequency Rossby waves and (mixed) Rossby-gravity waves are investigated.

Dynamics of Mechanical Oscillator Mechanism for Stratospheric Gravity Waves Generated by Convection
The mechanical oscillator mechanism (MOM) for stratospheric gravity waves generated by convection is investigated with a dynamics model using the two-dimensional, nonhydrostatic and linear governing equations based on the Boussinesq approximation.

Observation of Gravity Wave Vertical Propagation through a Mesospheric Inversion Layer
The impact of a mesospheric temperature inversion on the vertical propagation of gravity waves has been investigated using OH airglow images and ground-based Rayleigh lidar measurements carried out in December 2017 at the Haute-Provence Observatory (OHP,

Gravity waves excited during a minor sudden stratospheric warming [PDF]
An exceptionally deep upper-air sounding launched from Kiruna airport (67.82° N, 20.33° E) on 30 January 2016 stimulated the current investigation of internal gravity waves excited during a minor sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) in the

It is suggested that gravity waves could, in several cases, be detected by means of already (or shortly to be) available technology, independently of current efforts of detection. The present is a follow-up on a recently suggested detection strategy based on gravity-wave-induced deviations of null geodesics.

Horizon effects with surface waves on moving water [PDF]
Surface waves on a stationary flow of water are considered, in a linear model that includes the surface tension of the fluid. The resulting gravity-capillary waves experience a rich array of horizon effects when propagating against the flow.
