In and near the Alpine region, the most dense subnetwork of identical NDMC (Network for the Detection of Mesospheric Change, https://www.wdc.dlr.de/ndmc/) instruments can be found: five stations are equipped with OH* spectrometers which deliver a time series of mesopause temperature for each cloudless or only partially cloudy night. These measurements are suitable for the derivation of the density of gravity wave potential energy, provided that the Brunt–Väisälä frequency is known.

Abstract. In the present communication a novel method is presented to derive the altitude profile of Brunt-Väisälä period from the ascent rate profile of sounding balloons. The basic premise of the present method is that the oscillations in the ascent rate of the balloon will have the signature of Brunt-Väisälä frequency, which can be retrieved by using sophisticated spectral tools. We employ wavelet transforms to arrive at the Brunt-Väisälä period profile.

Abstract The Stokes drift in long internal equatorial Kelvin waves is investigated theoretically for an inviscid fluid of constant depth. While the Stokes drift in irrotational waves is positive everywhere in the fluid, that is, directed along the phase velocity, this is not always the case for internal Kelvin waves, which possess vorticity. For constant Brunt–Väisälä frequency, the Stokes drift in such waves is sinusoidal in the vertical with a negative value in the middle of the layer for the first baroclinic mode. For a pycnocline that is typical of the equatorial Pacific, this study finds

Abstract:
Estimates of turbulence energy dissipation rates have been obtained in the free atmosphere of the planetary boundary layer. These are derived in terms of the variance of radio refractive index fluctuations {Lln2 }, the Brunt-Vaisala frequency N, the mean vertical gradient of generalised potential refractive index M, and the turbulence structure parameter C~, using an airborne microwave refractometer. The energy dissipation rates thus derived are comparable with the results from other experiments. The inferred energy dissipation rates (on a near real-time basis) from the airborne microwave refr

Abstract:
AbstractIn this paper, the transient settling dynamics of a spherical particle sedimenting in a linearly stratified fluid is investigated by performing fully resolved direct numerical simulations. The settling behaviour is quantified for different values of Reynolds, Froude and Prandtl numbers. It is demonstrated that the transient settling dynamics is correlated to the induced Lagrangian drift of flow around the settling particle. A simplified model is provided to predict the maximum velocity of the settling particle in linearly stratified fluids. The peak velocity can be followed by the osci

Abstract:
The effect of random internal waves on the gain and pattern of a horizontal antenna array in a shallow sea has been investigated. An algorithm for calculating the correlation matrix of the point source field at the grating aperture is proposed. The antenna gain is analyzed for different spatial processing methods: the beam forming method, the optimal linear processing method, and the optimal quadratic processing method. The effect of internal waves on the directivity pattern is described by the dispersion of the angular response of the grating. Numerical simulation results are presented for a

Abstract. Analytical models are presented for currents along vertical magnetic field lines due to slow bulk electron motion in plasmas subject to a gravitational force. It is demonstrated that a general feature of this problem is a singularity in the plasma pressure force that develops at some finite altitude when a plasma that is initially in static equilibrium is set into slow motion. Classical fluid models thus do not allow general steady-state solutions for field-aligned currents. General solutions have to be non-stationary, varying on time scales of many periods of a plasma equivalent to

Abstract:
The generation of internal waves in the radiatively stable stellar region by the turbulent motion at the boundary of the overlaying convective zone is similar to the same case in the deep ocean or in the earth atmosphere (Townsend, 1965), and can be described in a simple way as following: When an turbulent fluid element arrives at the boundary of the convective region with a non-zero momentum, it beats and it deforms the interface between both regions. This disturbance of the equilibrium state excites a train of internal waves propagating below the convective zone in the horizontal and vertica

Abstract Dynamical stability of rotating fluids in Kerr spacetime is studied. A sufficient condition for stability, consisting of two criteria, is derived: One is the Richardson criterion related to the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability; the other is a criterion related to the barotropic and baroclinic instabilities. These two criteria are natural extensions of those known in non-relativistic cases to a general relativistic regime. They are satisfied simultaneously if and only if an effective Brunt-Vii.isii.lii. frequency is real throughout the flow region and the fluid is uniformly rotating. The l

We solve the so-called dissipative nonlinear Schrödinger equation by means of multiple scales analysis and perturbation method to describe envelope solitary Rossby waves with dissipation effect in stratified fluids. By analyzing the evolution of amplitude of envelope solitary Rossby waves, it is found that the shear of basic flow, Brunt-Vaisala frequency, andβeffect are important factors to form the envelope solitary Rossby waves. By employing trial function method, the asymptotic solution of dissipative nonlinear Schrödinger equation is derived. Based on the solution, the effect of dissipatio

Abstract:
AbstractFollowing the Kolmogorov technique, an exact relation for a vector third-order moment $\mathbi{J}$ is derived for three-dimensional incompressible stably stratified turbulence under the Boussinesq approximation. In the limit of a small Brunt–Väisälä frequency, isotropy may be assumed which allows us to find a generalized $4/ 3$-law. For strong stratification, we make the ansatz that $\mathbi{J}$ is directed along axisymmetric surfaces parameterized by a scaling law relating horizontal and vertical coordinates. An integration of the exact relation under this hypothesis leads to a genera
