The propagation of planetary-scale waves into the upper atmosphere
An equation governing the propagation of planetary scale waves in the earth's atmosphere is derived by scaling a generalized form of Laplace's tidal equation. Quasi-analytic solutions to the propagation equation are obtained for certain model atmospheres in terms of approximate Hough functions and …

Observations and models of inertial waves in the deep ocean
… function. Asymptotic eigensolutions of the Laplace's tidal equation are therefore derived and used as a set of expansion functions. The forcing is through a vertical velocity field specified at the top or bottom boundaries of the ocean. For white noise forcing, the horizontal velocity …
