The effect of linear waves on the Charney–Hasegawa–Mima model of drift and geostrophic turbulence is studied numerically for a slowly decaying field. It is shown that wave effects can reduce the efficiency of nonlinear mode coupling, effectively ‘freezing’ the spectrum to a narrow band in wavenumber space. Selective nonlinear interactions tend to favour velocities parallel to the direction of propagation of the waves. Accordingly, anisotropic spectra are observed, steeper in the direction of wave propagation, and shallower in the perpendicular direction.

AbstractUsing SOHO/EIT Fe XII λ195 Å observations the new type of oscillations in coronal loops was detected. The oscillation corresponds to wave propagated to outer area of atmosphere of active area. As opposed to most kind of oscillations associated with coronal loops the waves are observed at non-flare stage of active areas evolution. Velocities of the wave propagation were 8-20 km s−1 and had quasi-perpendicular direction with magnetic field. Such waves were detected in active areas located on solar disk and loops structures outside solar limb. Investigation of EIT data shows the waves are not result of changes of topology of a magnetic field and loops configuration. The nature and probable sources of waves are discussed.

Love wave propagation is studied by investigating numerical modeling results for several examples of geologic interest. The modal characteristics of the results are clarified by the use of narrow band‐pass filters and two‐dimensional Fourier transforms in range and time. Such processing makes it possible to study changes in phase and group velocity for the various modes and to locate points of reflection. This permits one to gain insight into changes in the physical properties of the surface channel supporting the waves.

AbstractIt has been shown recently that the backscattering of wave propagation in one-dimensional disordered media can be entirely suppressed for normal incidence by adding sample-specific gain and loss components to the medium. Here, we study the Anderson localization behaviors of electromagnetic waves in such gain-loss balanced random non-Hermitian systems when the waves are obliquely incident on the random media. We also study the case of normal incidence when the sample-specific gain-loss profile is slightly altered so that the Anderson localization occurs. Our results show that the Anderson localization in the non-Hermitian system behaves differently from random Hermitian systems in which the backscattering is suppressed.

Simultaneous mesospheric OH and O  (1S) night airglow intensity measurements from Kolhapur (16.8°N, 74.2°E) reveal unambiguous gravity wave signatures with periods varying from 01 hr to 9 hr with upward propagation. The amplitudes growth of these waves is found to vary from 0.4 to 2.2 while propagating from the OH layer (~87 km) to the O (1S) layer (~97 km). We find that vertical wavelength of the observed waves increases with the wave period. The damping factors calculated for the observed waves show large variations and that most of these waves were damped while traveling from the OH emission layer to the O (1S) emission layer. The damping factors for the waves show a positive correlation at vertical wavelengths shorter than 40 km, while a negative correlation at higher vertical wavelengths. We note that the damping factors have stronger positive correlation with meridional wind shears compared to the zonal wind shears.
