Planetary-Wave-Induced Transport in the Stratosphere [PDF]
Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2003 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

The vertical structure of oceanic Rossby waves: a comparison of high-resolution model data to theoretical vertical structures [PDF]
, 2011 Tests of the new Rossby wave theories that have been developed over the past decade to account for discrepancies between theoretical wave speeds and those observed by satellite altimeters have focused primarily on the surface signature of such waves.
