Barotropic Divergence and Very Long Atmospheric Waves
The problem of spurious retrogression of very long waves by the non-divergent barotropic forecasts is shown to be the same problem discussed extensively by Rossby, Yeh, and Bolin. This difficulty is due to the failure of the nondivergent model to allow properly for the mutual adjustment of wind and pressure fields. The equation of continuity for a homogeneous incompressible fluid with an upper ...

A comparison is made between the stability propertics of the norl-divergellt m d divclrgent one-pr:trnetc>r nlodels. It is show11 that the introduction o f divergcnce in the ow-pararnetcr rrlodol reduces t h o rate of growth of unstable disturbances arid confines the instability to a more narrow band of wavelengths.

متن کاملThe Scales and Equilibration of Midocean Eddies: Freely Evolving Flow
Quasigeostrophic turbulence theory and numerical simulation are used to study the mechanisms determining the scale, structure, and equilibration of mesoscale ocean eddies. The present work concentrates on using freely decaying geostrophic turbulence to understand and explain the vertical and horizontal flow of energy through a stratified, horizontally homogeneous geostrophic fluid. It is found ...
متن کاملThe Equivalent Barotropic Structure of Waves in the Tropical Atmosphere in the Western Hemisphere
Tropical waves are generally considered to have a baroclinic structure. However, analysis of ERA-Interim and NOAAOLR data for the period 1979–2010 shows that in the equatorial and NorthernHemisphere nearequatorial regions in the tropical Western Hemisphere (WH), westwardand eastward-moving transients, with zonal wavenumbers 2–10 and periods of 2–30 days, have little tilt in the vertical and can...
متن کاملon the equivalence of constructed-response and multiple-choice : stem-equivalent, stem non-equivalent but content equivalent, and stem and content non-equivalent items in reading comprehension using multifaceted rasch
the present study investigated construct equivalence of multiple choice (mc) and constructed response (cr) item types across stem and content equivalent mc and cr items (item type ‘a’), non-stem-equivalent but content equivalent mc and cr items (item type ‘b’), and non-stem and non-content equivalent mc and cr items (item type ‘c’). one hundred seventy english-major undergraduates completed mc ...
