Small-scale gravity waves in the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere generated by deep tropical convection

A time‐dependent, nonlinear, fully compressible, axisymmetric, ƒ‐plane, numerical model is used to simulate the generation of small‐scale gravity waves in the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere by intense deep convection in the troposphere. The simulations show that major convective storms in t...
