College students' measurements during a "ring of fire" solar eclipse last year have confirmed a long-held prediction about mysterious gravity waves in Earth's atmosphere.The students confirmed the ...

Gravity waves are oscillatory disturbances generated by the restoring force of buoyancy in a stably stratified atmosphere. They play a central role in transferring energy and momentum between ...

Atmospheric gravity waves occur naturally in Earth's atmosphere and are formed by Earth's weather and topography. Scientists have studied the enigmatic phenomena for years, but mainly from a few ...

Unlike Earth, where Rossby waves dominate atmospheric circulation, on Mars, gravity waves take precedence. These waves, too small to be measured directly, must be estimated using indirect methods.

The Atmospheric Waves Experiment (or AWE) aboard the International Space Station captured images of Hurricane Helene’s gravity waves, showcasing both the instrument’s capabilities and the ...

Solar eclipses don’t just look cool – they can send gravity waves rippling through Earth’s atmosphere like dropping a stone in a pond. An international team of students has measured these ...

In contrast to Earth, Mars's middle atmosphere appears driven by gravity waves A new study by researchers including those at the University of Tokyo revealed that atmospheric gravity waves play a ...

The Earth’s atmosphere is host to a diverse spectrum of wave phenomena, among which acoustic-gravity waves occupy a pivotal role. These waves arise from the interplay between compressional ...

Gravity wave clouds form in wave-like patterns in sky, oftentimes resembling ripples in a body of water from a rock being thrown. These types of clouds are created from air in the atmosphere ...

A new technology developed by NASA to predict space weather showed that Hurricane Helene produced "enormous" waves in the Earth's upper atmosphere as it came ashore on Sept. 26, the agency says.
