The WKB ray-tracing formalism is extended to accommodate internal gravity waves of all
frequencies in a rotating, stratified, and compressible three-dimensional atmosphere. This …

The spectral characteristics of atmospheric gravity wave motions are remarkably uniform in
frequency and wavenumber despite widely disparate sources, filtering environments, and …

With the application of radar to observations of the atmosphere, various weather
phenomena and winds in the clear atmosphere can be monitored and mapped in real time …

Radial velocity and temperature data obtained at the MU Radar Observatory during October
and November 1986 are used to examine the character of the motion spectrum in the …

The current primary radar method for determination of atmospheric momentum fluxes relies
on multiple beam studies, usually using oppositely directed coplanar beams. Generally VHF …

Some basic aspects of dynamics and transport in polar regions within one or two scale
heights of the summer mesopause are examined, and the implications for local one …

In this paper we consider a vertical wavenumber spectrum of vertically propagating gravity
waves im**ing on a rapid increase in atmospheric stability. If the high-wavenumber range …
