    • Observations of Gravity Wave Refraction and Its Causes and Consequences 

      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 ...
