The Boundary Layer Dispersion and Footprint Model: A fast numerical solver of the Eulerian steady-state advection-diffusion equation

Mark Schlutow, Ray Chew, Mathias Göckede

Understanding how greenhouse gases and pollutants move through the atmosphere is essential for predicting and mitigating their effects. We present a novel atmospheric dispersion an…

Instability cascade of strongly nonlinear gravity waves in a vertically sheared atmosphere

Georg Sebastian Voelker, Mark Schlutow

Although internal gravity waves are generally recognized as an important mechanism to distribute energy through the atmosphere, their dynamics near the instability is only partiall…

An unstable mode of the stratified atmosphere under the non-traditional Coriolis acceleration

Ray Chew, Mark Schlutow, Rupert Klein

The traditional approximation neglects the cosine components of the Coriolis acceleration, and this approximation has been widely used in the study of geophysical phenomena. Howeve…

Waves in the gas centrifuge: asymptotic theory and similarities with the atmosphere

Marie Rodal, Mark Schlutow

We study the stratified gas in a rapidly rotating centrifuge as a model for the Earth's atmosphere. Based on methods of perturbation theory, it is shown that in certain regimes, in…

On strongly nonlinear gravity waves in a vertically sheared atmosphere, Part I: Spectral stability of the refracted wave

Mark Schlutow, Georg S. Völker

We investigate strongly nonlinear stationary gravity waves which experience refraction due to a thin vertical shear layer of horizontal background wind. The velocity amplitude of t…

Generalized modulation theory for strongly nonlinear gravity waves in a compressible atmosphere

Mark Schlutow, Erik Wahlén

This study investigates nonlinear gravity waves in the compressible atmosphere from the Earth's surface to the deep atmosphere. These waves are effectively described by Grimshaw's…

Modulational stability of nonlinear saturated gravity waves

Mark Schlutow

Stationary gravity waves, such as mountain lee waves, are effectively described by Grimshaw's dissipative modulation equations even in high altitudes where they become nonlinear du…

Reflection and transmission of gravity waves at non-uniform stratification layers

Christopher Pütz, Mark Schlutow, Rupert Klein +2

The present study focuses on the interaction of gravity waves in the atmosphere with the tropopause. As the vertical extent of the latter is small compared to the density scale hei…

Spectral stability of nonlinear gravity waves in the atmosphere

Mark Schlutow, Erik Wahlén, Philipp Birken

We apply spectral stability theory to investigate nonlinear gravity waves in the atmosphere. These waves are determined by modulation equations that result from Wentzel-Kramers-Bri…
