Atmospheric Coupling by Gravity Waves: Climatology of Gravity Wave Activity, Mesospheric Turbulence and Their Relations to Solar Activity
Gravity waves (GW) are important for the coupling between the different regions of the middle atmosphere. They are normally generated in the troposphere, are filtered by the wind field in the stratosphere and ...
