Rossby wave packets on the midlatitude waveguide—A review

V Wirth, M Riemer, EKM Chang… - Monthly Weather …, 2018 - journals.ametsoc.org

The extratropical upper troposphere and lower stratosphere

A Gettelman, P Hoor, LL Pan, WJ Randel… - Reviews of …, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
The extratropical upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (Ex‐UTLS) is a transition region

Evidence for wave resonance as a key mechanism for generating high-amplitude quasi-stationary waves in boreal summer

K Kornhuber, V Petoukhov, S Petri, S Rahmstorf… - Climate Dynamics, 2017 - Springer
Several recent northern hemisphere summer extremes have been linked to persistent high-
amplitude wave patterns (eg heat waves in Europe 2003, Russia 2010 and in the US 2011 …

Regional‐scale jet waviness modulates the occurrence of midlatitude weather extremes

M Röthlisberger, S Pfahl… - Geophysical Research …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Several studies have attributed the occurrence of recent weather extremes to an amplified
waviness of the upper tropospheric jet stream. Although trends in jet waviness are still under …

Boreal summer extratropical intraseasonal waves over the Eurasian continent and real-time monitoring metrics

T Zhu, J Yang, B Wang, Q Bao - Journal of Climate, 2023 - journals.ametsoc.org
