Gravity wave processes [electronic resource] : their parameterization in global climate models / edited by Kevin Hamilton.
The subject of this volume is the observation and modelling of the gravity wave field in the atmosphere. The focus is on the question of how to include the effects of small-scale gravity waves in sophisticated global climate models. The book comprises 26 chapters, including contributions from distin...
