Local power spectra of the Earth’s atmosphere

Abstract:

This thesis is dedicated to the kinetic energy power spectrum of the Earth's atmosphere. This spectrum refers to the distribution of kinetic energy at different length scales of motion, from the energy in the largest swirling weather systems, to the smallest convective clouds. The spectrum is a multifaceted and deep topic, and it has earned academic attention for several reasons.

One reason is the inherent beauty the spectrum holds in many turbulent systems. Turbulence is a highly ...
