- Internal wave coupling processes in Earth's atmosphere (2014, unknown): “The vertical structure of fluxes associated with a GW harmonic i can be written as (e.g., Yiğit et al., 2008): F = { u′w′i(z) v′w′i(z) } = { u′w′i(z0) v′w′i(z0) } · ρ(z0) ρ(z) τi(z), (1) where z0 denotes the source level; ρ(z) = ρ(z0) exp[−(z − z0)/H] is the background neutral mass density, H is…”
