Zonal Jets as Transport Barriers in Planetary Atmospheres
F. J. Beron-Vera, M. G. Brown, M. J. Olascoaga +3
The connection between transport barriers and potential vorticity (PV) barriers in PV-conserving flows is investigated with a focus on zonal jets in planetary atmospheres. A pertur…
On the Lagrangian Dynamics of Atmospheric Zonal Jets and the Permeability of the Stratospheric Polar Vortex
I. I. Rypina, F. J. Beron-Vera, M. G. Brown +3
The Lagrangian dynamics of zonal jets in the atmosphere are considered, with particular attention paid to explaining why, under commonly encountered conditions, zonal jets serve as…
Rays, modes, wavefield structure and wavefield stability
M. G. Brown, F. J. Beron-Vera, I. Rypina +1
Sound propagation is considered in range-independent environments and environments consisting of a range-independent background on which a weak range-dependent perturbation is supe…
