Madden-Julian Oscillation described as a Nonlinear Burgers Kink in the Meridional Vorticity Equation
Richard Blender
A dynamic equation for a large scale convective event in the tropical atmosphere similar to the Madden--Julian Oscillation (MJO) is suggested based on the meridional vorticity equa…

Wave Triad with Forcings as a Nambu System
Richard Blender, Joscha Fregin
The dynamics of an ideal wave triad with real amplitudes has a well-known Nambu representation with energy and enstrophy as conservation laws. Here we derive Nambu representations…

Fluctuation Analysis of the Atmospheric Energy Cycle
Richard Blender, Denny Gohlke, Frank Lunkeit
The atmosphere gains available potential energy by solar radiation and dissipates kinetic energy mainly in the atmospheric boundary layer. We analyze the fluctuations of the global…
