In particular, the basic dipole propagates counter to the phase speed of linear Rossby waves in the presence of uniform background gradients of the surface potential temperature or planetary vorticity ...

By last year, researchers had found, during over the past twenty years, the same pattern of seven stalled peaks and lows over the same regions — “Wave 7” — has lasted seven times for more ...

This Potsdam Institute video explain how Rossby waves create extreme weather events. "A series of persistent, extreme, and costly summer weather events over the past decade and a half, including ...

An equatorial Rossby wave is currently passing to the north of Australia, causing areas of enhanced cloudiness on either side of the equator at Australian longitudes.

Unlike Rossby waves, which are large and easier to observe, gravity waves are small-scale and difficult to measure directly. Instead, researchers rely on indirect methods, such as analyzing ...
