Travelling Planetary Waves [PDF]
The oscillation of longitudinal position of the very long atmospheric waves, of wave-number 1, 2, and 3 has been described by KUBOTA and IIDA (1954), ELIASEN (1958), and others. In this note the motions of these waves are further examined, the data being Fourier zonal harmonics of the 500 mb height at latitudes 40", 50 ", and 60" N for the period ...

A comparative study of winds and tidal variability in the mesosphere/lower-thermosphere region over Bulgaria and the UK [PDF]
Meteor radars located in Bulgaria and the UK have been used to simultaneously measure winds in the mesosphere/lower-thermosphere region near 42.5°N, 26.6°E and 54.5°N, 3.9°W, respectively, over the period January 1991 to June 1992.

Stationary planetary wave propagation in Northern Hemisphere winter – climatological analysis of the refractive index [PDF]
The probability density on a height-meridional plane of negative refractive index squared f(nk2<0) is introduced as a new analysis tool to investigate the climatology of the propagation conditions of stationary planetary waves based on NCEP/NCAR ...

Wind measurements in the midlatitude mesopause region in 1983-1996 provide a climatology of planetary waves, as they are seen in oscillations of the prevailing wind.

Effects of the planetary waves on the MLT airglow [PDF]
The planetary-wave-induced airglow variability in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) is investigated using simulations with the general circulation model (GCM) of Kyushu University.

Planetary-Wave-Induced Transport in the Stratosphere [PDF]
In the stratosphere, chemical tracers are drawn systematically from the equator to the pole. This observed Brewer–Dobson circulation is driven by wave drag, which in the stratosphere arises mainly from the breaking and dissipation of planetary-scale Rossby waves. While the overall sense of the circulation follows from fundamental physical principles, a

More evidence for a planetary wave link with midlatitude E region coherent backscatter and sporadic E layers [PDF]
Measurements of midlatitude E region coherent backscatter obtained during four summers with SESCAT, a 50 MHz Doppler system operating in Crete, Greece, and concurrent ionosonde recordings from the same ionospheric volume obtained with a CADI for one ...

On the modelling of stationary planetary waves [PDF]
Abstract The structure of the atmospheric stationary planetary waves is obtained by means of the quasi‐geostrophic linear model developed by Matsuno (1 970). To show the influence of the upper boundary condition on the structure of the waves, the latter is computed using a rigid top and a radiation condition.
