Abstract

The vertical structure of steady, two-dimensional, linear mountain waves depends on the Scorer parameter profile of the background flow. This note briefly reviews the approximations associated with each simplified equation, discusses their relationship to standard filtered systems of equations, and evaluates the performance of each simplified vertical structure equation by determining the error introduced by each approximation in the calculation of the horizontal wavelength of trapped mountain lee waves.
