Abstract: The parameterization of orographic gravity wave drag (OGWD) in the Weather Research and Forecasting model is extended by including the second‐order Wentzel‐Kramers‐Brillouin (WKB) corrections to the surface wave momentum flux (SWMF) caused by wind profile… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract We present five epochs of WFC3 HST Jupiter observations taken between 2009–2016 and extract global zonal wind profiles for each epoch. Jupiter’s zonal wind field is globally stable throughout these years, but significant variations… read more here.
