Gravity Wave Characteristics in the Southern Hemisphere Revealed by a High-Resolution Middle-Atmosphere General Circulation Model (2012, result): “This result is consistent with that of Hertzog et al. (2008) based on quasi-Lagrangian observations using superpressure balloons (the Vorcore campaign) in Antarctica.”
Interaction of gravity waves with the QBO: A satellite perspective (2014, methodology): “These amplitudes represent the strongest waves obtained from a windowed vertical analysis of altitude profiles as described in Preusse et al. [2002] and Ern et al.”
Global Ray Tracing Simulations of the SABER Gravity Wave Climatology (2009, background): “The inferred momentum flux values well agree with measurements from long-duration balloons over Antarctica [Hertzog et al., 2008].”
A global view of stratospheric gravity wave hotspots located with Atmospheric Infrared Sounder observations (2012, background): “[58] These well-known orographic features have been analyzed in a large number of observational and modeling studies [Bacmeister et al., 1990; Wu and Jiang, 2002; Jiang et al., 2005, 2006;Wu et al., 2006; Alexander and Teitelbaum, 2007; Baumgaertner and McDonald, 2007; Vincent et al., 2007; Hertzog ”
GRACILE: a comprehensive climatology of atmospheric gravity wave parameters based on satellite limb soundings (2017, background): “Another recent development is so-called stochastic schemes (e.g., Eckermann, 2011; Lott et al., 2012; de la Cámara and Lott, 2015) which mimic the observed intermittent nature of gravity wave sources (e.g., Hertzog et al., 2008, 2012; Wright et al., 2013) in a simplified fashion.”
On the Intermittency of Gravity Wave Momentum Flux in the Stratosphere (2012, methodology): “The vertical fluxes of zonal, meridional, and total horizontal gravity wave momentum are estimated from the observations by computing the correlation between horizontal and vertical velocity disturbances induced by gravity waves (Hertzog and Vial 2001; Boccara et al. 2008).”
Internal gravity waves from atmospheric jets and fronts (2014, methodology): “…studies of GW sources and needs from GCM modeling: different lines of evidence (idealized simulations [Sato et al., 2009], balloon observations [Hertzog et al., 2008] and real-case simulations [Plougonven et al., 2013]) point to oceanic regions in the midlatitudes (i.e., to nonorographic GW…”
Implications for atmospheric dynamics derived from global observations of gravity wave momentum flux in stratosphere and mesosphere (2011, background): “One possible reason could be the strong intermittency of GW amplitudes and momentum fluxes observed in the real atmosphere [e.g., Hertzog et al., 2008].”
Review of wave‐turbulence interactions in the stable atmospheric boundary layer (2015, methodology): “However, it is limited for accurately measuring waves in shallow SABLs because of the relatively small vertical velocity near the surface and vertical resolutions of sondes [Hertzog et al., 2008].”
The deep propagating gravity wave experiment (deepwave): an airborne and ground-based exploration of gravity wave propagation and effects from their sources throughout the lower and middle atmosphere (2016, background): “…defined GW intrinsic properties and momentum fluxes (MFs) in the lower stratosphere and, in particular, their intermittency and potential for infrequent, but very strong, GW events to contribute a large fraction of the total momentum flux (e.g., Hertzog et al. 2008; Plougonven et al. 2008, 2013).”
