Mode selection, wave breaking and parametric sensitivity in the quasi-biennial oscillation
An analytical model is developed for the propagation of equatorially trapped waves on an equatorial ß-plane in a uniform zonal flow in the presence of Rayleigh friction and Newtonian cooling. By comparing solutions obtained from this model under conditions appropriate to the troposphere and stratosp...
