      Geldenhuys, M.ORCIDiD; Kaifler, B.ORCIDiD; Preusse, P.ORCIDiD; Ungermann, J.ORCIDiD; Alexander, P.ORCIDiD; Krasauskas, L.ORCIDiD; Rhode, S.ORCIDiD; Woiwode, W.ORCIDiD; Ern, M.ORCIDiD; Rapp, M.ORCIDiD; Riese, M.ORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2023-02-06)
      Horizontal gravity wave (GW) refraction was observed around the Andes and Drake Passage during the SouthTRAC campaign. GWs interact with the background wind through refraction and dissipation. This interaction helps to ...
    • On gravity wave parameterisation in vicinity of low‐level blocking 

      Geldenhuys, MarkusORCIDiD (Atmospheric Science Letters, 2022-03-07)
      This note is framed as an open question to the community regarding parameterisation schemes using the blocking layer depth to reduce the orographic gravity wave drag. It is the purpose of this note to argue that the current ...
