Equatorial waves resolved by balloon-borne Global Navigation Satellite System radio occultation in the Strateole-2 campaign

Abstract: Abstract. Current climate models have difficulty representing realistic wave–mean flow interactions, partly because the contribution from waves with fine vertical scales is poorly known. There are few direct observations of these waves, and most models have difficulty resolving them. This observational challenge cannot be addressed by satellite or sparse ground-based methods. The Strateole-2 long-duration stratospheric superpressure balloons that float with the horizontal wind on constant-density surfaces prov… Show more

“…Their trajectories get distorted by gravity waves which is reflected in their position and in the temperature and pressure data. Data from the French‐US Strateole‐2 campaign (Haase et al., 2018) have been intensively used to study gravity waves (Cao et al., 2022; Corcos et al., 2021; Lott et al., 2023). In this study, we use Loon superpressure balloon observations.…”
