They usually form at the crests of atmospheric waves, which would otherwise be invisible.

The brighter regions show the crests of the atmospheric waves.

How do large-scale atmospheric waves control the ionosphere at low latitudes?

In such a waveguide an infinite number of atmospheric wave modes can be excited.

In the mathematical description of atmospheric waves, spherical harmonics are used.

Upward-moving atmospheric waves could greatly heat a rarefied atmosphere.

Atmospheric waves transport momentum, which is fed back into the background flow as the wave dissipates.

In the atmospheric sciences, these plots are a common way to visualize atmospheric waves.

Once again it had profited from experience, recognizing the noises characteristic of him and watching for the expanding atmospheric waves that were his sounds.

Studies have shown that the coupling produces propagating atmospheric waves only when non-linear terms are considered.

It was much cooler, thanks to the violent and cold winds from Patagonia, which constantly agitate the atmospheric waves.

The solution represents atmospheric waves and tides.

Atmospheric waves dissipate above this level because of collisions between the neutral gas and the ionospheric plasma.

The Morning Glory has become something of a "mecca" for soaring pilots who surf the giant atmospheric wave in their gliders.

Birt worked extensively with John Herschel, carrying out a great deal of meteorogical research on atmospheric waves, from 1843 to 1850.

(2) can be attributed to atmospheric waves generated within the troposphere and dissipated within the lower thermosphere.

An eastward moving atmospheric wave that can enhance deep convection and contribute to tropical cyclogenesis, especially over the Pacific Ocean.

An atmospheric waveguide is an atmospheric flow feature that improves the propagation of certain atmospheric waves.

It has been argued that atmospheric waves that bring subtropical air northwards contribute to a much greater extent to the temperature differential than thermohaline circulation.

In 1951, Fjørtoft moved back to Norway, where he took a grand doctorate at the University of Oslo on the stability of atmospheric waves.

Within the thermosphere above about 150 km height, all atmospheric waves successively become external waves, and no signifiant vertical wave structure is visible.

Atmospheric waves range in spatial and temporal scale from large-scale planetary waves (Rossby waves) to minute sound waves.

Vladimir Jankovic, 'John Herschel's and William Radcliffe Birt's research on atmospheric waves'

Dr. Trenberth's analysis, relating equatorial temperatures, atmospheric waves and the position of the jet stream, is excellent and may have captured key factors influencing the 1988 drought pattern.

Because of his work with undersea wave and temperature measurements, he was asked to take part in similar geophysical studies and design balloons that would float up and monitor atmospheric waves.
