2. Equatorial Rossby wave - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equatorial_Rossby_wave

   / = / (+), which indicates that these long equatorial Rossby waves move in the opposite direction (westward) of Kelvin waves (which move eastward) with speeds reduced by factors of 3, 5, 7, etc. To illustrate, suppose c = 2.8 m/s for the first baroclinic mode in the Pacific; then the Rossby wave speed would correspond to ~0.9 m/s, requiring a 6 ...

3. Equatorial wave - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equatorial_wave

   Equatorial waves are oceanic and atmospheric waves trapped close to the equator, meaning that they decay rapidly away from the equator, but can propagate in the longitudinal and vertical directions. [1] Wave trapping is the result of the Earth's rotation and its spherical shape which combine to cause the magnitude of the Coriolis force to ...

4. Rossby-gravity waves - Wikipedia

   The eastward speed of propagation of these waves can be derived for an inviscid slowly moving layer of fluid of uniform depth H. [2] Because the Coriolis parameter (f = 2Ω sin(θ) where Ω is the angular velocity of the earth, 7.2921 × 10 −5 rad/s, and θ is latitude) vanishes at 0 degrees latitude (equator), the “equatorial beta plane” approximation must be made.

5. Zonal wavenumber - Wikipedia

   500mb geopotential height averaged between October 9–21, 2010 illustrating Rossby wave pattern with the zonal wavenumber 4. DOE AMIP reanalysis data.. In meteorological applications, a zonal wavenumber or hemispheric wavenumber is the dimensionless number of wavelengths fitting within a full circle around the globe at a given latitude: [1]

6. Rossby radius of deformation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rossby_radius_of_deformation

   For a barotropic ocean, the Rossby radius is () /, where is the gravitational acceleration, is the water depth, and is the Coriolis parameter. [ 2 ] For f = 1×10 −4 s −1 appropriate to 45° latitude, g = 9.81 m/s 2 and D = 4 km, L R ≈ 2000 km; using the same latitude and gravity but changing D to 40 m; L R ≈ 200 km.

   Freddy starting to intensify off the coast of Western Australia on 7 February. The origins of Cyclone Freddy can be traced back to 4 February 2023, when the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) [nb 1] reported that a tropical low—identified as 13U—had formed during an active phase of the Madden–Julian oscillation in conjunction with an equatorial Rossby wave, [2] while it was situated ...
