The drag exerted by weakly dissipative trapped lee waves on the atmosphere: application to Scorer's two-layer model

While it is known that trapped lee waves propagating at low levels in a stratified atmosphere exert a drag on the mountains that generate them, the distribution of the corresponding reaction force exerted on the atmospheric mean circulation, defined by the wave momentum flux profiles, has not been e...
