Sensitivity analysis of mountain waves using an adjoint model

An adjoint modeling system developed for the COAMPS nonhydrostatic model is used to explore the sensitivity of lee-side winds to the upstream atmospheric conditions for flow over a two-dimensional obstacle. For relatively small hills in the hydrostatic wave regime, the sensitivity patterns exhibit a...
