| Popis: | The vertical influx of gravity wave energy into the mesosphere, generated by gusts of wind over a mountain chain has been calculated. There is a satisfactory agreement between the spatial distributions of the calculated energy flux and the measured temperature increments over the mountain lee region. It is necessary to take into account the fluctuations of direction of the local wind and gusts of wind. These fluctuations have anisotropic distributions. |
