racer (GROGRAT), a r raytracing model of the propagation and amplitude evolution of gravity waves within any gridded numerical representation of the Earth's lower and/or middle atmosphere. Here we describe new features of the GROGRAT code and some recent results, including a global simulation using the CIRA-86 climatological middle atmosphere and some preliminary simulations of regional mountain-wave activity. |
