Aa. Krivolutsky et Bm. Kiryushov, CONTRIBUTION OF NON-ZONAL COMPONENT OF OZ ONE DISTRIBUTION IN RESONANT EXCITATION OF ATMOSPHERIC WAVES, Izvestia Akademii nauk. Rossijskaa akademia nauk. Fizika atmosfery iokeana, 31(1), 1995, pp. 151-156
Tidal theory analysis and 2D numerical modeling of wave structure show
the possibility of resonant Rossby waves excitation for zonal wavenum
ber m = 1. The non-zonal component of ozone distribution and 27-days o
scillations of solar UV radiation contribute in the source of excitati
on. The model equations are the quasigeostrophic vorticity equation, t
he energy conservation equation and the continuity equation. Model run
s show that large-scale transient waves may be really generated in the
middle atmosphere when atmospheric resonant characteristics do not va
ry dramatically. So the energy of a weak perturbation in solar activit
y may be accumulated in the Earth's atmosphere as Rossby wave motions.
These waves look like barotropic motions and depend on zonal wind and
characteristics of solar 27-days oscillations.
