A study of variability characteristics of atmospheric internal waves and their signatures based on satellite data and results of upper-air sounding

摘要

Characteristics of atmospheric internal waves and their signatures are analyzed using satellite data and results of upperair sounding. We consider the geometric features of cloud manifestations of wave processes and the corresponding physical parameters, as well as the current environmental state. The results of searching for the episodes of observations of atmospheric internal waves and their signatures over the Pacific coast of the Russian Federation from 2012 to 2017 are presented. We determined areas in the study region with the most frequent occurrence of these phenomena. The annual behavior of these parameters of wave processes is considered, and the results of analysis of their interannual variations over this region are discussed.
