Geostrophic Atmospheric Moisture Waves

Geostrophic Atmospheric Moisture Waves

Update 2018: Related research on my part suggests that the atmospheric moisture waves are closely related to a larger scale of the commonly observed Kelvin – Helmholtz cloud waves.  That makes sense in my view for numerous reproducible tests. Original 2017 post...

Geostrophic Moisture across North America

If one takes the January 1979 surface plot of the ERAI EP (Evaporation minus Precipitation) coverage, this is a sample of the possible views.  If I’m not mistaken, Rossby and Kelvin waves are suggested by the ridges and a major mid Atlantic depression of that...
Persistence of the Solar River

Persistence of the Solar River

It’s only fair to recognize the Solar Mountain’s conceptual inverse (loosely speaking), the Solar River.  The featured animation illustrates the summer and winter climatological average oscillations north and south. The mounds are regions of the synoptic...
Persistence of the Solar Mountain

Persistence of the Solar Mountain

The Solar Mountain is a phenomenon that can be characterized quantitatively from the perspective of a harmonic stochastic landscape.  Think of the featured surface above as an undulating map of the world.  Just as we were all taught in school about the Mercator...
